Maybe the point was lost on you, but with increased power comes increased heat production, which requires increased cooling demands, and yet, those Group B cars with 500hp were doing fine during extreme racing with cooling setups that didn't require massive bumper openings. *Thus*, I think it could be overkill to concern one's self with whether the oil cooler is putting hot air on part of the intercooler on a 300hp, street car (hypothetically speaking). Just saying.
