Maybe I'm trying to dig to deep on such a new platform. Just thinking that if we could actually see what the ECU is doing then we could solve a lot of these questions. An oil cooler obviously works but is it solving the problem completely or is it just prolonging the inevitable? Maybe it's still pulling timing but not as severe. See what I'm getting at? Sorry for the rambling. I just like a bunch of technical info. I'm a nerd like that.
I haven't logged it, you would have to do that with UpRev to really see in detail. I don't really care enough as like Cossie said, as long as you stay out of limp mode it doesn't make that much of a difference on track. It did feel like less timing was pulled when running the higher octane mix, but this could have been in my head.
