That sir is a clean setup. Well done.

In our racecars we mount them in the rear of the car. Kinda by the stock muffler area, but lay it flat and low!. Then run a hose from the drivers backside bulkhead. A little inline fan and it's done! Well two days later anyways.

Also, it sort of looks like the C6.R has some sort of cooler in the back, check out the screen where the license plate goes.

Anyone seen where the tranny/diff coolers are on a C5R or C6R are?

The coolers are B&M hitech, found em at Summit and they have the fan allready mounted..A little heavy but a great unit. Has a 160* thermostat built in.. I Wired it to run on auto thru the thermoswitch or manual fan for a good cool down..Summit part# BMM70298
THe cooler on the back of the C6R is condensor coil for driver A/C..Yep A/C..Dont know where they run trans/diff coolers..
