I am curious as to why you would install a different oil cooler.. Is the oil temperature cooler than before?? Does it eliminate the chance of oil mixing with coolant when the gasket fails?? Wondering if this is something I should do as well..

Basically what he said lol plus where I live it's kinda I live the the valley so yeaaaahhhhh temps go up also I just want my car to be cool lol it's smoother honeslty and more responsive I'm my opinion. The temp before would go up to 250 now it barely goes past the 2nd tick only if I'm really on it does it go past it.
