Oil Cooler or Intake?

Jordo!

Bang for the buck:

High flow panel filters (e.g., K&N), high flow cats or resonated test pipes (or ebay test pipes if you can dodge emissions testing, and don't mind some rasp on decel -- could be CEL issues with test pipes and no tune, tho') and two to three sets of ARC cool fins plastered to bottom of oil pan (remarkably -- this pulls oil temps down by about 10 -15* F).

All of that will give you a nice bump in power for very little money and help keep oil temps lower. I never see over about 220* F beating on it in the summer in FL. Every engine runs a bit differently tho', so see how yours does before deciding on the oil cooler.

Also, if you do decide to get one, I'd spring for a 205*F thermostat -- the 180* ones tend to run very cold in the winter, and do not let the oil reach optimal temp, which is about 200* F even.

I did the same thing as far as testing out my engine, seems i'm one of the lucky ones as even a spirited run through ortega hwy. i only see the temp. max out at 240* so seeing as i didnt have an immediate need for an oil cooler i decided to start by upgrading the handling and once i'm done with that then i'll move on to the power upgrades. btw my baby is all stock besides an upgraded front swaybar now
