370's high oil temp is the result of the VVEL, you can definitely address some of the issue by lowering your shift point. Still, how much fun is it to shift at that point and the high ambient temp is going to put everything to the max? I still think you are better off biting the bullet to take care of it. Brake duct is nice, but you won't die without it. They will definitely make your pads last longer and more efficient though.
