If your temps should really fall too much due to a oversized oilcooler or very low winter temps you can simply wrap it in foil or put a piece of cardboard in front of it to block the air. Even with the 19 row cooler I barely ever felt the need to do the above.

Why is that? I have an answer... A friend of mine running a 20V without oil cooler was on the track by the end of August and was getting high oil temperatures.... What i want to avoid is basically that.... High oil temps...

If i use the 16V oil sandwich i'll get after the VVT opening, low oil pressure warnings.... Because the 16v plate works with oil pressure, the higher oil pressure the higher volume leaving the engine to cool down.....

So i need a thermostatic one, because of that.....
