Default Laminova Oil-Water heat exchanger

Has anyone installed one of these Mocal Laminova oil to water heat exchanger oil cooler units on their 370Z?

http://97.74.103.94/files/laminova.pdf

They come in 3 sizes a 90mm, which is equivalent to a 10-13 row Setrab 225 matrix cooler, a 180mm which is equal to a 16-19 row Setrab and a 330mm which equals a 25-30 row Setrab.

Oil-water heat exchanges are very efficient, my GT3 has oil-water heat exchanger and my 350 Z has one as well, but this was deleted for the 370 Z and I suspect why the 370 has issues with oil temps.

The Laminova unit would be easy to install in a radiator hose with an oil bypass plate under the oil filter and running oil lines to the Laminova. No thermostat required and the oil is both warmed and cooled by the unit.
