Was looking underneath the car at the drivers side floor, as you do,

and I noticed an Aluminium Block attached to the floorpan. Anyone know what it is.. and what it does..

Does it kind of bulge down a bit?

If so it's the oil sump guard.

It's the Fuel Cooler.

It is a large heatsink that the fuel can be routed through if the ECU thinks the fuel is too warm.
