What oil feed setup are you using, and how is it working out?

FP told me to check the filter element every 2 or 3 oil changes, I planned on checking it in the next 1k miles. I ordered a few extra filter elements but lost them, luckily they are cheap.

Oh, mine is water cooled as well. And I have no engine oil cooler.

Thanks, I can rest assured knowing someone has a similar oil feed setup as I want, and it works fine! Got one more question, where is the FP inline filter located, near the OFH or the turbo? Does your turbo use a banjo bolt for the turbo inlet?
