I hv an oil cooler from Mishimoto.

Local weather noon time is about 32degC. Oil is TOTAL 5w50 full-syn.

Normal driving:
Oil temp reach 85 to 91DegC, the press is 1.5bar @ idle, Drive is ~ 6bar.

Track day:
Oil temp reach 116degC, the press is ~1.2bar @ idle, Drive is 6bar, but if went over 6000 rpm is ~ 5bar+.

if temp is about 100 to 109degC the press all the way hold 6 bar.

Q? should I used something like 15w50 for track day to gain the higher oil press, like keep it at min 6 bar with engine load?
