For those of you following along at home.. this is what we are talking about :
Something else of note that we do to these cars: we install 996/BoxsterS oil coolers. They are nearly double the capacity.

Oh man, you have to admire the engineering behind the boxster to be quiet without all the sound deading.
Is that oil cooler your talking about the oil cooler below the intake manifold?

Correct on the oil cooler. You can see it below the intake in the pic above.
The X51 oil cooler is nearly double the size of the BoxsterS cooler!!!
