It went pretty smoothly. I installed it at the same time as the AE Performance oil cooler and installed the PS cooler on the center bar sideways. I just had to drill a new hole in the bracket and fit in there nicely. I will post up pictures later. Hardest part was pulling the old hoses off the hard lines.

Yeah, those beasts are really stuck on there. I ended up using some pliers to squish the old hose just ahead of the hard line's end. It made the hose inch its way off slowly. Just have to be careful not to crush the hard line.

No boiling PS fluid on my 97F track day, so I consider it a success
