Default I think I just saw a write-up while doing a search...

for leaking oil around that area.

Anyways, let me see if I can find it somewhere. I seemed to have lost it. I bet there are a ton of cool fotki pics on a relocation as well.

Pointless post for me but I'll BRB!!!

Default the only one i have seen successfully done>>>

is mounted up in the engine bay....back behind the radiator a bit....

I know JoeVwvortex was trying to do one with his oil cooler in the passenger side fender, but it was not doable for space.....

To help with the mess, i sprung for an evacuator....seems to help with the mess a bit....

I have yet to see an installation that (IMO) was worth the effort. Good luck.

Default I you don't do an oil cooler and have a FMIC - you can put it on the passenger side

where the side mount intercooler was. I tried to stuff both an oil cooler and remote in there and there wasn't enough room.

Default I recall someone planning to put it in place of their battery once the battery was relocated

Never saw a write-up
