Every video i have ever seen, ppl always turn on the oil cooler before turning on the car.. Forgive my stupidness but im guessing u cant just switch it on when needed (on the fly)... Like during spirited driving when u see the temp rising but cant really pull over and stop to turn it on...
They come with a thermostatic plate which is essentially a thermostat. It opens once the oil reaches a certain temperature. If it wasn't for that, the oil would never get up to temperature.
