The GTM has the thermostatic plate though right?
I read on some thread(can't remember which one) that using the oil cooler, the running temperature is too cold without the thermostatic plate during the winter time.

From what I read, the Stillen oil cooler doesn't have the plate. So I was wondering if I would have any problems with running too cold during the winter time without the plate if I go with the Stillen. Although, it doesn't really get cold in LA.

Thanks.
