If you still have the vacuum system on your Bravo, getting to the engine mounted oil filter can be tight. Without the vacuum pump it's a lot easier. The Bravo engine has so many oil lines (opportunities for leaks), I would hate to add any more with a remote oil filter. Personally I would put the cost of the Remote filter toward eliminating the vacuum system.

I agree with the comment that changing the oil filter with the vacuum system removed is much easier.  We have two GI-275's for the HSI and ADI and now oil changes aren't a big deal.  It also helps that I cut a piece of PVC in half (length ways) and set it under the oil filter to drain the oil out of it before unscrewing it.  Just poke a hole in the top of the oil filter with a screw driver and turn the filter 180 deg so it drains onto the PVC.  Works like a charm.
