I run the Stillen "Race" oil cooler and it helps a lot.
Did you have the oil cooler installed here in Tucson? If so by who, and do you recommend them?

Yes. I had Stephen from IA Performance do my oil cooler install. He did a great job and used some extra bits to make it a better, more durable/clean install. Many months now with 0 issues with the oil cooler.

Do you meet up every Saturday? I would be willing to shoot up(the Z needs to stretch her legs every once in a while). I only have one Saturday off a month though, cause Im in the restaurant business.

So far yeah, every sat night for almost a month now. Check out the First AZ Thread, we're trying to get more people to come up, then once it's consistent, we can figure out things to do and all. I'm willin to work out a swap where Tuscon guys come up one weekend, and then P-Towners can drive down since it's not far at all.
