Its a tough call cutting the front trunk.. even if you use a GT shroud. We have been beating the piss out of a 245hp 3.0 9146 for 3-4 years at track events WITHOUT a extra cooler. It wasnt until we started running full on 20 minute race events that it would start to get hot during the last two laps (even in 100+ degree heat) so I stopped pushing the extra oil coolers unless the person is racing the car. Synthetic oil and properly calibrated/rebuilt gauges with proper sending units yield acceptable oil temps even in San Jose 100 degree traffic heat.
