Oil Cooler install solves the problem?

I got up to 265 ish really quick when I drove on GMR for only 5-10 minutes. Didn't even get 1/4th the way of the route I was planning on taking. After an oil cooler it never went above 240 and I drove the whole thing this time. I also purposely drove it harder/reved more cause I wanted to make sure the oil cooler helped keep things cool like it was supposed to.

In summer at between 97-99 degree ambient temperature at Sears Point I slowly got my oil temp up to 260 with high heavy revving and no limp mode and no problem.

Gas starvation sucks with or without an oil cooler.
