Oil Coolers and Over cooling

lol that definitely would not work. Your coolant temp would increase when running your car hard because your oil temp is increasing. Just because you have 2 coolers doesn't mean you will effeciently cool the car off. the guage reads the oil temp before it flows through the engine. If you are tracking your car yes you do want the oil between 200-220, and thats where my z runs with my 34row cooler.

Please explain how you would think that having a) your engine oil as a heat source and b) cross flowing it with your coolant, which is also another heat source...and with both radiating off of eachother adding another cooler would help you maintain a 200-220 temp when pushing the car to its designed limits? I really honestly don't see it but would love to see how it could "Possibly" work.
