Not if you like screaming over moutain passes (I live in Colorado, we
ski a lot).

Yep wonderful improvement.

I would go for a cutout in the bumper or in the area in front of the
passenger side wheel (need to 'gill' the fender liner though).

If you search for qships posts about cooler testing you will see
that it makes a pretty big difference.  I did a post a while back
about the adapters required and the oil lines I made up.
