The 25 row series 9 setrab is double the volume of the Perrin 13 row series 6. I suspect it is doing a very good job of removing heat from the oil, which in turn is preventing a lot heat from entering the coolant system.

I am on stock radiator. @mkivsoopra who has a koyo radiator and the same 25 row who was running 3(?) more psi and ~50(?) more whp than me saw the same temps.

I tested oil pressure on track. 60-75 psi at redline depending on how warm the oil was (max of 210ish). @Dezoris

Still need to test it next summer in 100 deg temps.
Whoa, awesome! Do you street your car at all? Any problems of oil being too cool?
