This plate removes the bulky oil filter housing that commonly gets in the way during swaps. The over pressure relief valve is retained and must be removed from your OEM housing and reused. The thickness of the plate matches the VW housing so the stock bolts are reused also.
The plate kit includes a pair of M18 to 10AN male fittings for the oil filter lines and a M12 to 4AN fitting for the turbo oil feed. If you wish to use an OEM banjo style braided line, the turbo port is tapped the same M12x1.5 thread as the oem filter housing. The port for the OEM VW pressure switch is tapped M10x1.0 and can easily be plugged with an ALH cylinder head oil galley plug if not being used. The AUX port is tapped 1/8 NPT for the easy addition of an aftermarket oil pressure or temperature gauge. A plug is included for the port if you do not need it.
Made 100% in house from 6061 Aluminum.
We have settled on the CVR Performance billet oil filter mount as the best compromise between value and quality and have added it as an option. Uses a Wix 51060 or equivalent filter.
