Would it be a big deal to remove it? If there was a part out there that required you to remove it, would you do it?
 
Jay I feel if some one wants an oil cooler there are options to relocate if need be.
My opinion only.

i put yes but what kinda of parts upgrade are we talking about? my car didnt come with a oil cooler from the factory so either way.
 
I chose a large front mount cooler as an option to relocate it while using a large griffin radiator. I had a local hydraulic line shop make some cooler hoses, perfect clean fit, 75$ for both. It makes a drastic difference in oil temps having it there. cooler oil will have a better useable lifespan, as well as aid in engine cooling, my engine stays a bit cooler with the oil cooler in place as well.
 
We've been working on a new header design and basically the stock oil cooler needs to go away for clearance. I wanted to see how many people were still running it to see if I needed to change the design of the parts or not. Doesnt look like Ill need to.

Nope

Including the twin setup, we have 3 different header projects in the works right now.

What about the hoses on a Turbo-Saver?
 
Interested in these headers......I have Ta's now with no complaints, but always like to see new things, including twins;)

Jay,
Will this new design being considered work with a Duttweiler style oil pump?

thanks,
Robert
