It doesn't really matter which is faster, it only matters that your oil gets up to temp quickly enough to not adversely effect your motor.

In your case, your car get's up to temp quickly enough and your oil temps stay cool on your canyon runs, so your kit works for you.

In our case, our car went into limp mode before we could turn three laps on the track with a 34 row core. So we needed something more and that's why we developed our kit. It get's up to temp quickly enough and it lasts all day on the track, which is what we needed.
It works about 90% good enough for me. If the ambient temp is low enough it keeps everything in check, but on hot days in the midday sun I'm still hitting 280 after 10 minutes of driving on track.
