Congrats on the bonus!

The car will be fine w/out the aux oil cooler, you just can't go hard lap after lap after lap. Take a couple hot laps and then a cool down lap, etc. I've run mine in 90+ heat multiple times and that approach works fine for occasional track days. I have a friend that has been running NASA TT for years w/out an oil cooler and his car has had no issues as well.

That said, like most everyone else, I highly recommend a good oil cooler if the car is going to be tracked regularly. I recently tested the OEM Forester sandwich cooler and it was no good, so don't get that lol. Get what CSG recommends, that is next on my list as I start to track my car more often.
