What temps have you got?

Street or track?

NA or boosted?

Typical climatic conditions?

Stock engine?

Current oil pressure data?

You need to know these things to pick oil cooler type and size, if not you can overcool, not cool enough, drop your oil pressure, etc. etc.

Actually, why do you think you need a oil cooler is the first question to answer.

This! This is what needs to be asked. My go to is the Forester XT regulator. It works great even when driving spiritedly in the Texas heat.

I use the Forester item as well, mainly for the benifit of heating up my oil from cold faster, the quicker my oil hits 90° the quicker I can make mad skids

It has worked well for when mine was NA, and so far has not seen any issues since the car has had a turbo, albeit for only a limited time and it has only seen street duties in temps ranging from 15° to 30° centigrade.

If, and only if, my temps start getting above 125° then I will look more deeply into a well engineered solution.

IMO some of the "pre-fab name brand" oil coolers seem to be 1. To large (to much cooling and oil pressure drop), 2. To long (oil pressure drop), 3. No thermostat (or if they do have a thermostat it opens to early, personally, I would like my oil no cooler than 90° centigrade).

Alot of cars fitted with these coolers, when used on the street, struggle to keep oil temps over 90° centigrade.

I was looking at a good site a while ago explaining correct size and type choice, I'll try and find it again..

Opinion may vary

Personally, I'm would first look at one of these, all the benifits of the Forester unit, just larger, plus less chance of rock/crash damage > https://www.crracing.com/product/oil...4-inlet-outlet
