I have some info for you if you wish to get a better seal and better oil filter on the relocation head. I had the same fitment problem with the stock oil filter being too small. I even have a old GTM filter kit holder you can have, if you wish.

Oil filter relocation:



I made a bracket so that it bolts up using the OEM front skid plate bolts, and as you can see it worked out great..simple bolt on.

The oil system will go like so:

From oil filter sandwich plate to oil filter, from oil filter to oil cooler, from oil cooler back to oil filter sandwich plate.



Since the scavenge pump does not need servicing (10,000 hour life) it's final resting place will be behind the fender. Again, just a simple bolt on:





And I did some shopping today as well, $300 later and I have all that is needed for oil cooling, and oil scavenging. -8and for the oil cooler and -6an for the oil scavenge system. As you can see, there is no cheap rubber hose here:




I am now working on building a sample kit that will stay behind with me once this customer is done. From that I will move on to the jig fabricatio. I managed to build another down pipe, and reverse Y-pipe today. Hope to have another set of hot pipes built to feed the turbo in the next day or two, and then start focusing on finishing this project. There is still a bit of work to do though, but it is looking very good as far as I can see.
