Just to assure myself that I have everything before ordering parts today. To install this part correctly on a DSM, I need:
-1 extra short bolt from the housing to replace the long bolt that no longer fits this housing (anyone have a part number handy?) Should I reuse the factory 7bolt cooler bolts?
-Tap hole for the oil pressure sensor (1/8-28 BSP)
-5ft -8an Hose line
-3 straight -8an fittings, 2 for the filter housing, and one for the bottom of the cooler
-1 90* -8an fitting, for the top side of the cooler
-2 16x1.5 metric to -8an adaptors to go into the filter housing for the lines to connect to. (Are these ABSOLUTELY the correct fittings, I need to be 100% sure)
Please correct me if I am wrong on ANY of this. I need to order this stuff today preferrably so I have been researching the hell out of it for the past half of a day.
Other things that I apparently need to note:
-The oil cooler should be mounted so that the return port is on the top to help remove any air.
-The oil feed line for the turbo is on the top side of the filter housing (is it different in thread than the factory 7bolt housing, becuase if so I need to order new fittings to convert my oil feed line?)
-Do I need any gaskets to install this cooler onto the car as well?
-There is already a built in thermostatic bypass valve built into the oil system so no addition thermostat is needed for a setup such as this.
I believe thats about it. If you have any information that can help me out I would appreciate it. Essentially it is Friday, and Id like to order everything and anything that is needed to install this piece today so that it will arrive in a timely manner. I have tried doing all of my research and have compiled what I feel is important as you can see, but before I go ordering stuff on a whim, I would like to see if some of you guys can't verify this stuff for me. Thanks for any input you can give.
