I think you have a good setup. I only see two problems (mostly personal opinion)

The cuts into the hood are very rough and need smoothing.
I also think that some fins to go over that hole would be badass looking.

I don't have a Turbo, so I can't help you with anything else lol

yea like TTT said, there are no t2 hoods used for v-mount, maybe on the front mount, but as far as to cut a t2 hood for a v-mount is just pointless..


soo im still undiced if i should run fd oil coolers or the stock... soo far i have a general idea of the set up im going to be doing but still trying to see whats the best possible way.

Some FD guys convert to FC coolers. Keep that in mind. From the research I have done, Mocals are bad ******* ***. Sadly though, I can't report first hand experience - YET. Here's my setup.



Now that I look at it, I could've just referred you to my avatar

Thanks guys, it's actually changed alot since then. The rad is mounted differently and much farther from the ground. The Mocal T-stat also needs to be remounted

how much cash? & you do realize that it will only work with my Griffin Rad and PWR intercooler, and you would need to cut out the factory front support and weld threaded 1/4" plate on the frame.

If you're REALLY serious about buying the setup, PM me. I can always build another one for myself.
