DIY - Install PSP front mounted oil cooler

Hi peeps
I just installed a PSP front mounted oil cooler and found the way the kit is designed to be installed, simply did not work on my E92

In fact after a lot of stuffing around, I found installing it upside down worked perfectly

I thought i'd share my experience and solution, in case someone else is installing a FMOC (PSP or other brand)

Hope this helps someone out

You need an oil thermostat without this it takes too long for the engine to warm up, I am running the stock thermostat with this cooler and I get excellent oil temps with the stock turbos.
