Sorry, don't have any pictures, and I'm also on a different platform than you.
Placement shouldn't be a problem as long as you're willing to spend some time with cardboard to mock up the mounting and aluminum sheets for the mounting tabs.
The reason I suggested pre-intercooler was to prevent dumping cooled air. It may not make that big of a difference, if at all, but it's just something I prefer. Hell, my stock recirc valves are pre-cooler.
Looking forward to seeing more pics.

We had to solve some oil leakes. After that we saw that 1 bank is running 20% richer than bank 2. This week I am trying to solve this.
Done so far
change fuel regulators.
Change fuel pomps.
No positive result.
What can it be. Any suggestions?

Is the AFR imbalance under load or under vacuum or both? Under vacuum is normal because of plenum design (well, with the stock plenum). With the kinetix, I'm not sure. With an exhaust leak upstream of the O2 sensor, you might also get imbalance under vacuum. Under load it should equalize...
If it doesn't, test injectors per the FSM.

ya, i would say o2 problem causing incorrect readings.
possible manifold air leak on the lean bank side (unlikely though)
The chances of a whole bank of injectors being bad is rare and easy to test by swapping injectors between banks.
I know my cams are slightly off which causes a little bit of variance between my banks but only at certain vac cells. I was confused why i was having variances and then logged cam values and i assume that was the small issue. I'm not sure cams could create a 20% difference though. I would check to make sure both cams are at least working. If one has a wiring issue or a solenoid issue and is at 0* while the other is at 25* advance it could cause some problems.

Widebands are calibraded.
all under vacum.
only drivers site all sparks are wet so i know it is on all 3 cilinders.
1000 rpm 20% richer
3000 rpm it is getting leaner then the passeger site.
Pfff.. i hope to solve this.. but no luck so far.

If it's only under vacuum, why does it matter? 10.4 vs 10.8? Ignore! You can try checking your exhaust manifold and downpipe connection... A small leak under hard vacuum will suck in enough outside air to cause a slight imbalance, but it's completely irrelevant.
