What is your water temp when the oil gets that hot?

But he intends to track and it will be very well needed.

True. I thought he was mainly concerned with daily driving, but yeah it wouldn't be a bad idea if he's going to track the car.

If you read about the oil guy oil temps should remain around 200-210 and this will make the motor and oil last longer.

I have the exact setup and can terrorize the freeway running high rpm and can't get over 220.

That's exactly my point. The OP said he was seeing 220-225 after running hard on the highway before putting on the oil cooler. If he wasn't going to track the car I wouldn't worry about seeing those temps. It's not high enough to cause any damage.

I'd be more concerned with running too cool than running 220-225.

If water temp was normal then I wouldn't worry about 225 oil temps.
