I haven't had a chance to weigh the stock cooler yet but my plan would be to utilize a smaller lighter cooler in the rear as the extra run of the hose would allow for some cooling as well. Yeah it's not a ton of weight but there's not many options to eliminate or move a lot of weight at any one time on these cars. Mostly its a few pounds here and there that add up.


I'm guessing I'd end up with a slight net gain in oil capacity with a smaller cooler and a longer hose run.


My main concern at this point is finding a viable safe route for the hoses.
