Pro design super cooler!!!

[GASGASCWB]

Hi guys.

I bought the PRO DESIGN SUPER COOLER and now I need to install it on my GG EC300 2018.

https://www.prodesignracing.com/super_coolers.htm

I'm not sure which hose he goes in!

The explanatory leaflet reads as follows:

"SUPER COOLER must be installed in upper hot water line." Then cut water line 3-6 inches from return water spigot from head "Note: very important make sure you install in hot water return line."


Can anyone tell me with absolute certainty what this hose is?

Appreciate.

The hot water return line is on the left side.

You won't gain anything by adding the cooler.
Just creates another place for a coolant leak.

Ok!
Hose #13?
Thanks again.

The bottom left hose is the return.
Depending on the size of the fitting on the cooler, will determine which hose it goes on.

Usually, those coolers are used for replacing the thermostat housing.

So Not 13.

It will look nice and shiny but it doesn't equate to surface area in cool breeze. If it did you'd run 4 of them and take those heavy fragile radiators off.

What is correct then?
At no time does the product in question say that it will make the radiator work...
Just say helper the motorcycle cooling system!
I read some feedback from customers who bought and were very happy with the result.
Thank you for your opinion on whether or not the product works, but I just need to know if the correct hose is # 13!

Thanks.

13 is the coolest part having come from the radiator. I link you posted instructions says 'upper'.

It would probably do the least harm if you put it on the hose 16 opposite the thermostat.

Thanks (F5)!!!

Nambotim models used to come with this in line coolers.
It goes near 16 on your diagram on both sides.
But this ones you got is really small GasGas ones was much bigger.

Had it on my GG and machined a pair for buddy

For effective energy transfer to occur you need a large delta of temperature and lots of area. But it's so hard to get a fair comparative test and so easy to market machined bits.

Edit; just seen Leo pics. Yeah they have some area.
Be nice if weren't shielded by radiator mind.

On my 07 GasGas it had one of those instead of a thermostat (#16). On my 2012 the thermostat deformed and I could not clamp a hose to it so I replaced it with one of those.

Please don't mistake me for any kind of expert but I'm surprised that something like this would make much difference. The added surface area seems to be fairly small as a percentage of the radiator surface.

If cooling is an issue, would an uprated water pump not be a better option to shift the coolant faster round the radiators? Or a radiator fan to improve cooling airflow rates in slow riding? Probably would ditch the thermostat as it must restrict water flow even when fully open.

I tend to agree.

With regards to replacing the thermostat with one of these I have always worried that you have a hard edgy metal piece right next to your radiators, the chance of it rubbing a hole in the rad must be quite high and definitly outweighs any heat transfer benefits.

with regards to heat transfer you will be better off fitting a fan kit from the GG trials bikes and a manual switch to turn it on and off as you want

I have made a mod to pipe 16 and I was concerned about radiator damage but with some care it is non issue.

I've cable tied a small bicycle pump mount and velcro'd the pump on. All things considered it's far more likely to be useful.
