I am planning on installing the oil cooler once the temp starts to rise but I am in the PNW so never gets super humid/hot. I don't like to block my FMIC so I will be installing the oil cooler behind my driver side fog light (BRZ) and do a fog light delete to get some air flow in there.
As for the upgraded rad, I think it is a good idea, but depends on your climate/purpose of the car. For freeway pulls, DD, I have not seen my coolant temps in unusual ranges.
Internal wise, many tune shops/mechanics thinks it will do fine to about 350whp, but the longevity will suffer for sure. Expect a full rebuild around the 50k mark if you maintain your car decently.
Vented hood is probably a good idea, and a trans cooler is a must imo. Meth kit will keep the temps down as well.
