i talked to the guys there an he said that most of the parts were crap like the turbo set up was just a top fuel one so probably it was from ebay or the same quality lol

Auto Parts, Motorcycle Parts, Car Parts, Truck Accessories & Parts, Auto Accessories - JC Whitney, and Amsoil also makes several models.
In addition to the previous two comments, I can understand that the hardware for a turbo setup could interfere with the normal oil filter placement. A relocator is just an adapter plate that screws onto the threaded pipe that receives the normal filter, and seals with an o-ring to the stock filter plate on the block. The new adapter comes with a hose and threaded fitting that screws into the adapter plate. There is another filter mount plate with hardware to attach the new plate somewhere else in the engine bay, where you screw on your oil filter.
Where the heck will you put that? You will probably need to throw away your windshield washer tank, because that's how much space you will need. If you use super short Short Ram Intake, with the filter very close to the throttle body, you will have enough room near the fender to place the new remote oil filter mounting plate.
Good luck!

i didn't specifically look in their fit's engine bay, but isn't their filter relocated because they most likely installed an oil catch can because of the addition of a turbo?
Also, i was just their today getting some engine coolant and i took a look at their fit's brake kit. aren't their rotors on backwards? and if you look at the rotors you can see that the brake pads only contact about half of the rotor. i wonder if they ever tracked that car or if they just threw on a buncha parts for show.
