The advantage of a front mounted auxiliary cooler (rather than primary) is that it doesn't have to take up as much real estate. My 3.6 cooler is massive and takes up a lot of trunk space. So much so that venting out of the hood was a much more elegant thing to do with it... not to mention that it actually works now rather than when it was exiting out the trunk floor. I needed fans on all the time then because I live in the south.
Now, if I had two smaller coolers, I might have saved some trunk space by puttin' them somewhere else. That said, I don't think the space under the headlights wouldn't have been big enough for a dual-cooler 3.6 system.
Mepstein: I have a question. Why block off the cooler behind #6?
I have a second cooler (via a sandwich adapter) off of that console. It cools high-pressure, liquid oil rather than the foamy stuff the front cooler deals with, so it's a lot more efficient. If you leave the Behr in play, your front cooler will be smaller and lighter. Unless there be something I don't see!
Note: The one advantage of a primary cooler up front is that I block off a little bit of that air and redirect heat to the cabin in the winter.
