Oil does run hotter so if you don't have an oil cooler, its definitely recommended since my average temps were around 200 before and now around 215 after a while of cruising at 70mph. I have a 2012 with the factory crap cooler.
I plan on putting the pan adapter plate and an aftermarket cooler. Like I said still haven't had time with it. My oil avg's 220s on the highway. Mines an 11 with an even crappier factory cooler. I'm still having a hard time with the fact they even produce a Z without an LSD as standard, it's not like the added cost wouldn't be pushed off to us anyway.
