Thanks to Fluid Motor Union

Today I had decided to go ahead with my install on my Heat Exchanger and Johnson CM30. After reading a bunch of posts and going on various forums I decided that a sponsor on here Fluid Motor Union is the place that will be doing the install and working on my car. I'm 100% satisfied with the work that they have done on my car and I could not even start to explain the attention to detail that Craig (one of the owners) put into the install for me. Since I own an SL55 and not an E55 I decided to purchase my own Heat Exchanger that needed to have the holding brackets fabricated and had to be run with the original one instead of alone for extra cooling. OJ (one of the owners) came over and both him and Craig decided on the best flow for the car and how to keep it as cool as possible. I scheduled an appt. with these guys that same day and even tho the fab took a while they still did it all the same day completing the car at 150%. These guys are a great business team to deal with, everyone at Fluid was extremely helpful and informative.

I def. recommend them to anyone that wants their work done right with no shortcuts and great attention to all details. www.fluidmotorunion.com

Thanks Guys

here are the pics of the install (crappy cell pix)

Fitment for the cooler:

Are the hoses on upside down? Inlet to pump should be on the bottom of the heat exchanger not the top. That way gravity keeps air out of the pump at all times.

Fluid motor union is incredible. Some of their work is just beautiful. The velocity stacks w/ meth injection they made for an E92 M3 should be in the Louvre.

i do not think they are all that good, some bad rep in our parts and an even worse rep with the way they did business with the guy who was providing tunes for them

What guys that was providing tunes? I think that as far from the business perspective towards the customer is all that anyone should care for. Who cares about how they did business with another person that provided them tunes or whatever. You always have to have both stories before making any sort of judgment and in this case I guess it would be non of our business.

What parts is that for the bad rep?

C63 Estate
Just draggin up an old thread.

I have a Eurocharged heat exchanger waiting to go on.

Eurocharged advised me to disconnect the stock heat exchanger and just run there one alone.

How come Kamils tuner has decided to run the stock one and the new one? Is the correct way to do it?

Also if it sits in the front like that won't it block the oil cooler from getting cool air?

Any advice appreciated.

Bump. I got a speed driven heat exchanger and they have failed to provide any fitting instructions. Can anyone advice how to install it on the SL55?
