    Can you post a link to the cooler you bought and any other install pictures?

    I have a blower with the same fitment issues that you had. I plan doing the same thing with a Rally Road cap.

I did as much research as I could and wasn't sure whether or not the oil cap cooler would work BUT IT DOES!

    Second Problem I faced was where to mount the damn thing. I live in vegas and this is an 80% track car 20% weekend car so wanted to retain the factory air conditioning system and aux fan which left no room for a cooler in front. The right side pod for the brake cooling had been filled with the intake for the supercharger so that left me with the left pod as my only option unless I wanted to run the smaller s54 radiator with the stock cooler but given that I track this car and the supercharger isn't intercooled I opted for the Mishimoto 10 row oil cooler which JUST fit.

    Ran the lines and tested the system for leaks and everything is working great. I'd consistently see 260-270 degrees Fahrenheit oil temps on track when it was about 70 outside if I ran when it was 90 degrees ambient the coolant would start to creep up to 215 degrees Fahrenheit range. Excited to test this out and glad that the rally road cap works with the euro/s54 cooler.
