Default Later modines Vs earlier

Just browsing on advanced automotives web site I noticed that the later modines seem much bigger (and more expensive) than the earlier ones.

I assume that means they'll be better at keeping oil at the right temperature, but just wondering if even a track day car could get away with the larger 2008+ modine instead of resorting to an air oil cooler.

Less hoses, less chance of leaks, but are they up to removing enough heat at approx 400hp on track?

I never did find out, sadly.

Currently using an external oil cooler with a thermostatic sandwich plate, but that has its own issues.

Bumping this thread again.

Anyone have any experience of the later modines, or indeed has anyone taken a hatch or later out on track without an external oil cooler, and not had oil temp issues?
