Alright I've read multiple threads about these and there a few questions I'm not 100% sure about. I own a 98 GSX. Right now I looped the external oil cooler coolant lines to each other bypassing the cooler all together. I want to get rid of the stock oil cooler completely. I run a oil filter sandwich plate right now that only has an after market oil pressure sensor attached. So with the new FF oil filter housing installed Ill be able to run a turbo feed line to my 14b, still have the stock oil pressure sensor, the stock idiot light sensor and the oil sandwich plate too right??
 
I am assuming you talking about running the mighty max OFH. That only has one port on it. So yes you can have all those but you would have to run a T off that port. idk if you would need the dummy light if you already have an aftermarket oil pressure gauge personal preference? I dont remember off hand if that port is filtered oil or not and that can make a big difference on feeding your turbo.

Just get the evo 8 or 9 OFH its got alot more ports and you dont need to tap any thing for your oil cooler lines plus it taces down and the best thing is...... You can yet rid of that silly sandwich plate as they suck

+1... I am running an Evo8 oil filter housing and oil cooler. I got lucky and picked up the housing, cooler and lines from evolutionm.net for $100. They usually run about $120 - $140. The stock Evo cooling lines need to be rearranged but can be made to work if the cooler is mounted correctly.
 
Yes, you will have to tap one of the holes on the ofh but you will have enough ports. If you haven't purchased one yet message me, I have a brand new one just sitting.

I will let you know if I decided to go with the mighty max instead of the Evo 8 housing.
