The other way to go it is an oil cooler...but maybe this is not really needed. Any help or comment wil be appreciated!!!!
For what you are doing the Forrester OEM solution should work. As far as heating/cooling is concerned its a thermal dynamics thing.... If the oil is colder than the coolant it will warm it, If the oil is hotter than the coolant it will cool it.
