Pettit Super Charger Owners
Well by moving some stuff around and wedging stuff in--I placed an oil catch with vacuum on the master cylinder side of the engine bay. Believe me its needed.

I need a picture please....mine has been all over the engine bay and would like to see where you ended up. I hope it's above the fill point - I learned the hard way.
exactly Phil.
what i did was drill the Pettit oil filling cup ---the one which the cap screws into---and installed a 3/8 fitting. That is what feeds the catch can. and since my oil funnel inserts pass that point --its all good.
I used the mazdaspeed mastercylinder brace bolt to mount that Peittit oil fill cup instead of mounting it on the brake booster unit as per the instructions.
Dont you have your remote oil filter on the drivers side?

Moon--- you talking about the oem radiator --right?
sounds like it is a nut and bolt time? Just drill through and use a nut on the backside or reem the plastic out and install a nut there--anchor with a good automotive silicone sealant like window weild.
Got ya RR and thanks--no rush just dont forget me?

The solution proved to be easier than that, Denny. I dropped the splash shield to get better access and then took a dremel tool with a small round carbide bur and split the nut on opposite sides. Came right off and didn't mess up the plastic mount any more than the 'spinning nut of doom' did.
Guess you could say I got a nut off

or not

Front shock strut brace
What options are available for a front shock strut brace? I'm not satisfied with relocating the MazdaSpeed unit I've got in front of the mounts in order to clear the front of the supercharger, looks like that's going to put a lot of torsion on front corners. I've got the stock unit, but I'd like something with some bling to it.

but it is beautifull :D
