Oil Cooler efficiency

How good is the factory Oil Cooler? I have S1 Rx8 with the single cooler. Recently BP motor upgrade, the car will be track raced.

Should i upgrade the factory cooler? if so what options do i have?

thanks

SEARCH!
All RX8's need at least 2 oil coolers.

I thought only the automatics had 1 oil cooler?

Do you have pics of your cars/oil cooler?

auto's do only come with one, but its always a good idea to add the second... i did on my automatic and it helped bring down engine oil & coolant temps.
