When is zooomer gonna step in? i agree that most ppl probly wont buy this for the reasons of price and ease of install. However there are plenty that will definately buy this. Id love to continue making piwer on my m62 and if its around 600 i would definately get this. Especially if the oil filter is not that bad like mr b is saying

although its not hard to do I doubt seriously that the oil filter housing will need to be removed this manifold will be plug and play

It's not rocket science, but I would do such removal procedure only on a bare engine casing so you can clean all the metal shavings from the oil channels...
And most people here will find that really a different story than simply screwing an oil adapter plate in the filter housing.

I really hope this thing works and can be fitted with some simple engine mods, but seeing the dimensions in relation to the intake flange position, most likely something more is needed.
We can discuss this forever, but it's time for ZZP to enlighten us.

From what I see all it does to flip the Supercharger to sideway. ZZP is not going to waste our time to do all that hassle for changing that oil filter location.
