firstly, i have gained a small oil cooler, about 4"X12" and im interested in fitting it onto my ke engined coupe,  is there any points on the block where i can tap the oil feeds off (i dont think so), if not is there an adaptor plate fitted to any vws or audis that can be used ( i think they normally sandwich between the oil filter and block), if not ill have to make or buy one.

Secondly, slightly of topic, but how does a sequential twin turbo setup work?? i presume you have a small turbo to produce low end boost, and a large turbo for an extra dollop of boost further up, is this correct??  if so do they both just bolt up to the same em?  is there a control mechanism??  like a wastegate or something that controls which turbo the exhaust gasses go to?  what about the im, do both turbos just connect directly to that?  what happens when the big turbo produces more boost than the small, does it stall it???
sorry about all the questions but ive never really had it explained..........
