Does a oil cooler really help considering it usually sits behind the intercooler? What steps have you guys taken to try and keep oil temps low in order to enjoy the car in a hot summer day? What temps are you guys seeing with your setup on some spirited driving?

Thanks
The oil cooler will be fine located between the intercooler & radiator.
Main things to focus on to help:
-Proper size oil cooler
-Uprev tune with better fan controls

Next level:
-Radiator (CSF or GTM)
-Better fans
-Venting (Hood, fender liner)
