most people say you dont need to run an oil cooler, i say bs run one anyways if you want you car , they even did a test in sport compact magazine that they saw an increase in spool up from the oil cooler any one remeber this issue? , better do it right the first time. total cost was $ 327 dollars at jegs.com im not responsible for you damaging your car.
first you need to get all the parts these are all the parts i used.

you can do the hose your self it does take time to put all the fittings in, justi think its one of the most time consuming

i took out the headlight to see how i was going to route the lines, u dont really need to but ii learned that too late, well i hide my wiring so that was good , this is for a DA integra

drill a hole to hold the oil cooler

mount the cooler

make sure uyou use teflon tape to prevent any leaks, and do not put it right next to the tip of the treads because it can go in to your system at least 2 treads back and your cool

make sure you tighten them i used a 23mm socket

once you mount the oil cooler you might have a problem making the lines fit, i dint want it to rub the part of the structure of the car , just incase vibration or anything may break the line so what i did was...

fold her back and your cool

this is how the lines come out when oil cooler install the lines are appx. 1 foot long

then make some more 2 lines appx 3 1/2 foot long

put all the an to npt adpater on the thermostat

it should hold like that

next put the 90 degree fittings on the sandwich first remember teflon tape!

then un-screw your oil filter
and you should see this


then put the lines are ur done

other than that looks good....nice write up

Drift- My source is BobIsTheOilGuy.com and its been explained how cheap they are there valves are weak and the paper lining may burst. Search "FRAM" on that site see how many people took them apart and look how cheap they are. The only FRAMS I will ever use are the X2 ones which are OK not the best but decent
