I ran a Process West oil cooler on my MY05 for over a year no issues. Didn't notice many gains tbh, and you have to watch the initial warm up period. Saying that, I never ran laps or logging at that time to say there was/wasn't a gain.

People are referring to the firey death of my car after ASG installed the FMIC, headers and motec. Some people think the oil cooler was the cause of the fire. If you do go for one, I would ensure it has braided lines (to stop the rubber lines melting on headers) and a thermostat (for initial running). But before doing it, I would log and make sure you really need it before going down that path.
