What have you guys done about oil filter relocation when you have a turbo manifold i have found a couple of kits in the US that are direct fitment but does anyone no of a kit over here that i can get i have also heard of people griding the locating pin off and rotating the housing round so the oil filter is facing the other way but think this is a bit of a no no is it not pics wood be really helpful :D
