I decided today to become somewhat of the CXRacing guiney pig, as i am already running their FMIC, manifold, exhaust, radiator, and fan. Next thing i was going to get was an oil cooler, so i mind as well get it from them and then come back later and report back how the lines and core holds up. It'll be paired with a Greddy Thermostatic Oil Cooler adapter so its not totally bogus

but now the question. Should I mount the oil cooler in front of the radiator, or do a sidemount setup? I figure i can just move the electric can over to the side and mount it in front of the radiator on the opposite side, but would this create any cooling defficiency with the intercooler being up front, then cooler, then the radiator?

Thanks Everyone.
