@sw20kosh: We got the temps rock solid stabile, finally, on @ImperiousRex's car. I don't think we've ever seen over 235F, even in 110F ambient weather.
@Maximal: the car in question with the Greddy oil cooler also has a Greddy turbo kit, which just COOKS oil.

The Jackson Racing oil cooler setup that we use on our car uses a 9 series 15 row Setrab core, which offers slight more cooling capacity than a 6 series 19 row cooler.
Good to hear!

What do you think allows the greddy unit to enjoy so much success? Is there anywhere I can read up on the details of what you guys did for his setup cooling wise?
