Yeah, not to mention the oil being used to cool the turbos themselves, and this car already had a tiny oil heat "issue"
A cooler would be manditory, if you happen to track the car, you might need two oil-cooler cores and chain them together.
one other thing I don't like about turbos is that you have to give them time to cool/spin down after driving so that they aren't screaming and their oil supply shut off, roasting the oil...etc.
