I asked for it to be facing to the left corner but it did'nt happen! It wasnt' to much of a problem until we decided to mount all the coolers further back.

There are 3 good reasons and 1 real reason all the coolers are mounted like that
Good ones are:
1. Shorter intercooler pipes (less Lag)
2. Better weight distribution
3. More cruch area incase of racing incident

And the real reason:
We couldn't close the bonnet with the new radiator in the factory position :oops:
