You bet! But, that's for guys who mainly (that's mainly) track their cars.

Its one of those hugely misunderstood issues. Under normal driving conditions you shouldn't be going into limp mode. I drive fairly aggressively and I've barely cracked 110C - usually around 90-100. If you are going to track the car then you need an oil cooler - plain and simple.
