Im new to the oil cooler gang! Since the Covid and the track shutting down, I usually go for a canyon run. While the temps are lower then 90, elevation is above 4900 ft. Last two times before the oil cooler, it was 255 - 260. Now, with the oil cooler, its closer to 210. I wonder adding a water spray on the oil cooler will help drop the temp.

lol you're right. I want to be prepared for track days. Idk how the car reacts to 15-20 min of pure revs under 90+ degree weather.
