Since I needed my car on the road yesterday, and have a leak between the block and relocation bracket for the oil filter (turbo). Since the NA models don't use this bracket and just screw the filter on the stud, would it seems correct to assume an O-ring for an NA oil filter would match the one needed for the relocation bracket for a turbo model?

Here is my suggestion. The first one is my original. It works, but the lines go out, and very close to the intercooler hose. That hose being rubber was not a huge issue, but I switched to the Canton piece later.

The question is, would A relocated filter with no cooler be better or equal to the stock system with oil cooler? The car all ready has the shimmed pump and If I would be ok running no cooler, I would like to run a thermostatic one later as an addition to the relocation.
