Hyundai i30N MK3.5 (Facelift) Oil Cooler
Developed from our direct involvement with BTCC and success with the previous generation I30N, Forge Motorsport is proud to release an oil cooler kit for the Hyundai i30N MK3.5. This oil cooler radiator is lifted straight from our motorsport department, so we know this component performs extremely well, as well as the cores tough and durable construction. Next stage was to design a kit incorporating this core which will fit the i30N Mk3.5 perfectly - the result is a bespoke oil cooler kit with true motorsport development behind it.
During our time developing new products for the second generation i30N we found a significant floor with the vehicle especially when tuned. Oil temperatures can climb to dangerous levels when on track or when driven hard in hotter climates, The rising oil temperatures change the viscosity potentially thinning the oil, this will result in only one outcome, a reduction of sufficient lubrication of your engines internal components. Therefore, the FMOC13 is a must have product for the keen driver. The location of the oil cooler at the front of the vehicle’s radiator grill allows for superior air flow. During our development of this product, we have seen oil temperatures reduced significantly.
Unlike many oil cooler kits, the FMOC13 keeps the factory oil to water cooler in position. This essentially doubles your engines oil cooling. This new product is not to be confused with a universal oil cooler. FMOC13 has a laser cut aluminium bracket which makes for perfect fitment to the i30N crash bar and has an incorporated side ducting which guides air flow through the core.
Manufactured in Gloucester UK, FMOC13 is made to the uppermost standard and is backed up by the Forge Motorsport lifetime warranty. It is available in raw finish or black powder coat finish for the stealthier look.
We’ve incorporated a thermostat that is built into the oil cooler sandwich plate, this has been set to open at 85°C as this was observed to be the optimal working temperature of the oil cooler when testing, this means the engine is working at its most efficient oil temperature range however hard you push the vehicle. The oil cooler lines are manufactured from PTFE and reinforced with stainless steel braided line nylon braid, and the fittings are aviation grade aluminium.
The kit comes with the following:
1x Forge aluminium sandwich plate
1x twin pass oil cooler
4x M6x20 fasteners
4x M6 washers
2x oil lines
4x M6 Rubber Riv nuts
1X M20x1.5 adaptor
1X weather strip
All the fixings required

With Hyundai redeveloping the turbo charger to run more boost and a larger flow than the previous generation there is even more reason to replace more restrictive OEM intercooler with the larger Forge Motorsport item, based on a stage 2 ECU calibration and fitted with the Forge intake (FMINDK28) and turbo inlet adaptor (FMTIA10) the new intercooler performed as expected,
The FMTIA10 is proven to benefit the engines performance. With one of the weak links on the i30N and intake system being the restrictive aluminium inlet pipe we found something more was needed on stage 1 and 2 tuned vehicles. You cannot go wrong with Forge Motorsport hardware on your tuned Hyundai, the results speak for themselves.
This aftermarket cold air intake system improves your i30N’s airflow in several key ways. It routes the air more directly into your engine, using a huge 102 mm diameter CNC mandrel bent alloy pipe. The aftermarket system also improves the airflow by adding a high-flow, high efficiency air filter in place of the more restrictive factory air filter. Finally, the cold air intake system is set up to allow cooler air to easily flow into your engine
