Which oil cooler KIT?
After installing a 6MT gearbox in my 1998 classic, the engine oil temperature is getting too high at trackdays (above 120 degc). I know this is mainly caused by reduced TMIC efficiency, so I'm replacing it with a MY03 IC and getting a larger scope (can't afford FMIC/ECU/remapping etc now). For added safety, I still want an oil cooler.
I need a complete kit with a thermostat, price range £300-£400. Any recommendations? Please post URLs.
Do any of the JW Racing kits have a thermostat? -> http://tinyurl.com/clelt

would increased charge temps really lead to greater oil temps?
Surely the engine wouldn't run hotter, just at slightly lower power. The engine and water cooling would still be the same, If anything, less oxygen, less fuel, less exothermic reaction that makes the engine hot in the first place.
