   anywhere you want if you have a remote filter, just bolt it somewhere and sort the pipes accordingly.

   it does exactly what it says on the tin, its a take off plate that goes where your oil filter normally is, but instead of having the filter it has 2 pipes, these go to a remote filter housing which has the oil filter, is allows you to put your oil filter anywhere instead of where it currently is. Good for manifolds, or cars where you dont have much space.
