i have 2 hayden oil cooler kits.. anyone intrested in one? I recommend extending the lines to put it infront of the IC. Not too sure as to how well it will fit off to the side but hey atleast its SOME idea.

If you put any heat exchanger in front of the intercooler or radiator, the air that they get will be substantially hotter then ambient temperatures, and thereby lessen their ability to cool. Ideally every heat exchanger could get its own supply of fresh air, figuring out how to do that, or get as close to that as possible is the hard part.

Bend the standard oil cooler mounts down vertical, turn the cooler around the other way and mount it on the front side of the mounts, get the oil cooler lines lengthened to suit.
