Re: MAPerformance Oil Cooler kit results

Drag racers and street racers don't need an oil cooler at all.

And yet I keep buying new ones for my car, maybe I should save a few bucks and leave it off!

I'm going to the MAP road course day in brainerd on june 25th and I want to make sure my oil doesn't get too hot. After a certain point oil loses its lubrication properties right? And if its a hot day and I'm putting load on the engine for longer periods of time I know the oil is going to reach 240°+ temps. Just trying to do some preventative maintainance.
