Any negative effects?

none so far,works just like stock just at lower coolant temps.

hey seb thanks for the fan control mode. been driving for almost a week know and notice a different in oil temps. i"ll be in this summer for a oil cooler tho.

I have to get this done. My car is p*ssing me off, if I hit some light traffic or do some stop-and-go city driving, the oil temps jump from 180 to 220 - it's so annoying. I have an oil cooler and it's doing it's job, since the oil temps will never cross 220, but at 55-degree weather, it really shouldn't get that hot, especially that fast.

I went to have this done and My ECU is one of the ones that can't have it done so my tuner has my ECU # and will call UpRev Monday and see what they can do for the rest of us.

I don't believe this option in UPREV covers cooling the oil. I think it is for the radiator fans to give your coolant some extra cool.

But I could be wrong ...

I was going off of the below:

I may not be correct on the temps but I know that it works amazing, oil temp stay much more consistent in stop and go traffic and low speed cruising.

Regardless, I'm going to go out for a drive and test it now. I just had it done.

I did 45 mins of stop/go heading down 805 during super rush hour. I'd normally see 220+ even with 19 row oil cooler since there's no airflow.. but I was surprised it stayed 195-200. This fan control is a must!

I have a 6.5in spal fan in front of my cooler and a CSF radiator so I'm not that bothered that I can't do this.

I stand corrected sir... learn stuff everyday on here.

Just beat the piss out of my car on the same route I take home, with the same type of temps out and normal. I did local driving from GF's> highway for 8 miles>2 miles of local town driving with plenty of stop signs until I reached home (I like the scenic route home).

Just beating it as much as I safely can on the streets, keeping it in 2nd and 3rd gear mostly, downshifting frequently to 2nd. Normally, oil temps would be 220 immediately, timing would be retarded and loss of low-end power would be very noticeable.

With the adjustment done, oil temps remained 180-190, no feeling of timing pull, and hardly any feeling of power loss. Car felt fantastic and zippy all the way through the town, which is normally where it just feels flat. There was no sun out, but weather was in the 60s. We'll see how it performs under hotter conditions as they come - but I am very confident in this mod.

Seb - I noticed this in UpRev last time I reflashed my car a couple weeks ago, it's there in the regular Tuner version as well (not just Pro). I turned everything up to 100% sooner of course, and it helped. What I'm wondering about: mine had the data columns for 214/217/221 like your factory image - how did you get the columns to switch to lower temps (your second image: 192/196/205?).
