I'm not sure how much weight to put on the oil warming part of the JR's mission statement. Their oil cooler sits in the radiator and the water in the radiator is only going to get warm when the thermostat opens and that may take a while in cold weather.

If someone is really interested in temp "regulation," the best choice is still probably the Subie unit. They just need to make sure to plumb the cooler into the coolant bypass circuit. That water warms up much quicker than the radiator. Some implementations of the Subie cooler plumb it into the lower radiator hose. I don't think that is going to circulate water until the thermostat opens either.
