    But they are brand new.
    New is obviously good. But if it isn't "even remotely like an original" why would I want to pay almost twice what a new one from Elephant Racing costs?

    The benefit of the new cooler and it's "Plug and Play". You use all your original parts such are your stone guard and oil lines. I think you have to make a few small mods to use the elephant cooler.

    Thats Franks view. "Remotely" is a strong word.

    But if my car didn't come with a cooler and I want to add one... well, in that case I have no other original parts to reuse. Sounds like no purpose to factory in my case.
