Here in AZ, during normal commuting/city driving, with the 2012 factory oil cooler, I ran about 230-235 normally. (Ambient air temp about 108-113).

With the Z1 Motorsports 34 row cooler, same driving conditions and elimination of the factory cooler, I am seeing 195-205 normally. Enough of a reduction to greatly mitigate the ECU driven power loss due to heat...
