Default Where do you all put your coolers?

I am wondering I dont know of a great bolt on spots. Any tips? I was thinking near my FTRA under the car since most air is brushed along there.


I was thinking about getting a trans cooler and oil cooler

I don't have picts and the car isnt with me right now but i just put mine right in front of the radiator on the passenger side works great. Also did not make the car run any hotter.
