I live in Chicago, IL and the temps right now are in the upper 70's, lower 80's with high humidity. After about 20-30 mins of driving, I notice that the car starts driving sluggishly. The temps on the oil gauge are close to 220F. Acceleration and shifting are sluggish.

I have done a search on this and it seems that the car has a overheating problem? I'm wondering if this is contributing to the sluggish performance in warm temp's and high humidity OR if that is how the car behaves after driving it for more than 20 mins.

Should I invest in buying an aftermarket oil cooler and tune?

Thank You
if you havent read about it already, the 370z has temp problems, just get a simple 19row oil cooler and call it a day, if you plan on adding FI to your car, then upgrade to a 34row cooler
