Can someone more knowledgable then me please explain the benefits of relocating the oil filter. Bigger oil filter, easier to change? Anything else?

Yes it will, due to the length of the hoses you can locate them anywhere in the engine bay.

When compared to the GReddy kit, this kit looks pretty sweet, Brice. Great price, too. Good job.

Recommended mounting locale?

Oh, I like that black one!
Might have to do this and take out the RB oil adapter, but I don't really find the stock location all that bad.

Man..
When installing the turbo and deciding to use the filter adapter for the feed line, that was a major pain in my ***.

Now I just have to decide where to mount it and if it's worth it at the time being...hmmm. Thinks with head

So would the RX8 S2 oil filter be the recommended filter or could something even bigger/better be used?

If you get the 3/4 thread and the M20..almost anything will fit....there are much larger options for sure..

I am using a Canton Racing full flow filter on mine...it filters to less than half the particle size of most OEM type filters

Nevermind, the S2 oil filter uses a m22 thread not m20.
