exactly what i expected that to get to.
add to that 25f less heat and a quicker heat to operation temp =its quite a good deal for what it costs,how it be installed,and the most important wont avoid warranty since its pretty easy to remove before going to the dealer.

the thing is :
how did you check it and for how long? in track?how long was each session?how many sessions?
I will repost the imgur link so people don't have to go hunting. https://imgur.com/a/e90ChVU

First, I agree with this forum's general advice of getting a proper oil cooler for serious track stuff. I was debating getting the Jackson Racing Dual Radiator/Cooler, and I may do that down the road. But I put a lot of daily miles on my car, so I wanted to minimize aftermarket failure points until I get through the warranty period.

To answer your questions:
These temperatures are just off the OBD, and the time period is a single entire session at Streets of Willow CCW, the raw data is trimmed to line up as best as possible.
Before: 15 minutes, 9 laps, session 2 of 4, 67F ambients, 11am on November 3.
After: 20 minutes, 11 laps, session 4 of 4, 65F ambients, 3pm on December 22.
The pace was roughly 1:30-1:35 (maybe some slower laps due to traffic) which is a healthy pace. There is about an hour between each session.
