Some guages run off your vehicles OBD2 port. These guages usually display a variety of information in real time.

STI BRZ engine mounts! I just went and did the transmission mounts along with it.
The stiffer rubber keeps the engine movement down to a minimum with little to no increase in NVH. This I had to do as even with my mounted intercooler - it rocked enough to work one of the intercooler couplings off. Boost leak!

In the long run the oil cooler will help keep the viscosity nice when the IAT's go up. Thinner oil as the IAT's go up means you could have a spin bearing potential loss on your hands. Not something worth risking. This car's engine bay runs not just hot but hawt. I would reccomend the oil cooler, larger radiator, you could look into potential functional side venting or a vented hood; trust me it helps.

I just mean that I would get a thermostatically controlled oil cooler. Hence that...

This step by step is what I used to do it myself - took longer to take off the bumper and loosen intake tubing to allow the lifting of the engine about 5-6 inches. This is needed for clearance to slide out the mounts. you should not need to take off the bumper like me. You do not need to loosen the engine braces. I did this with jack stands and a typical hydraulic jack. 14mm sockets for the bolts and extensions to get leverage on the socket wrench but that was it. Took me about 20 minutes for swapping the actual engine mount and transmission mounts. the rest took about 30-45 minutes to take off the covers and put them back on since I was trying to find a boost leak in the piping couplers. Honestly you only need to undo the intake tube from the airbox so the bumper would stay on. This assumes you do this before having an FI kit installed.
