gotcha, I wasn't sure, as I have been hearing mixed things. I have an 09 (no stock oil cooler), and every time I see the temps near 220, i usually panic.

I've noticed, though, that if i turn on the AC, it somewhat cools the temps down?

When you turn on the A/C, the car kicks on both radiator fans.
