I looked over ever thing and the only problem that is prevalent and repeating is you need to put more effort in fabricating fan shrouds.
since a fan is round and a condenser is square or rectangular you need to fabricate a shroud so air is being pulled through the entire face area of the condenser.
A fin straightner can do wonders as they work well but you need the correct FPI (fins per inch) they sell individual fpi tools or some may have 5 or 6 fpi on one tool
Fins normally have small ridges in them to create turbulence within the condenser itself. This is good because turbulence causes the fins to reject more heat. But severely bent fins ,while causing turbulence they will have a negative effect as they will restrict or entirely block the air flow Thru that part of the condenser.
But the fan & fan shroud should be designed for no turbulence,this will allow higher air flow for the same differential pressure,Plus reduce fan noise.The shroud allow air to be pulled thru the condenser equally across the entire face. If measurement were taken the flow should be pretty even thru the entire condenser,even in the corners.

Yup... btw on the sleeve... just use electrical tape if you don't have heatsink... 
My only complaint about that build

Looks good Duniek. What kind of temps are you getting with that and what gas are you using?
In the future you may want to space out your desuperheater a bit more to let the airflow help things out.
Lets see some loadedtemps huh

There's nothing wrong with his fan/condensor setup wdrzal. The fan hes using to me looks like its covering the whole condensor so theres no reason he would need a fan shroud. Some chilly1's units are the same way so they must work well.

I would suggest feeding the desuperheater from the top and then have the exit tube at the bottom run up to the condener. You may trap oil in it the way you have it now. I would also leave a space between loops for air cooling.
Nice cooler.

I agree, the exit should be at the bottom

In my friendly advertisment agency they hzve a special saw, which cut alu profiles on 45* , 90* and any diffrent angles.
