Dropping the engine is not required, It is really a personal preference .

Oil cooler is to cool the engine oil, intercooler is to cool the the air charge, two different things .

Oil cooler is always recommend

is that a diff cooler right behind the rear end in the pictures as well, or is that how you placed the oil cooler because of the Double intercooler in the front?

Any pictures of the oil cooler and its fitment behind the intercooler? Wanted to get the GTM oil cooler because I would know it would fit behind the GTM intercooler.
