Where they ran an accusump and remote oil filter in the trunk and
Two coolers in the rear bumper area, one for oil and one for tranny.

Not that I want more weight in the back...

I wouldn't run the oil cooler up front, although
That is what my RSR does, but 911s are used to pushing oil to the dry sump
And it does help with weight distribution.

My S already has the 3rd radiator.

I've seen a setup that deletes the oil/water radiator on top of the block and takes the oil from there for circulation, however I think most take it off the filter housing.

I'll look for the pictures of that setup.
I had sent a q about a turnkey system but got no response.

I'm also considering a forced air setup in the triangle
In the bracing are near tranny, but not in love with oil cooling near exhaust
But that maybe no different than rear bumper

FOUND IT --- to me this looks like a pretty sweet setup.
