I see this jackerson radiator/oilcooler combo. I wonder how well that works.

My FR-S is used mainly at the track (not my daily driver) so I use 30 weight oil from about Apr-Nov. Once track season is over, I switch back to 0w20.

I actually saw some comments on the 86 track FB page about the JR combo cooler. Seems it works really well. I think one guy claimed he saw max track oil temps of 220 F in 80 F ambient weather. If true, it actually works better than my Perrin standalone (~230 F oil temps in similar conditions). Should also help bring coolant temps up to nominal faster in street driving. Might be a good solution for you, but I'd probably send an email to Jackson asking whether it's got enough cooling capacity when paired to a supercharger on the track.
