I fear the worst.......
wife liked it! hehe. Thanks man!
2nd radiator is the thing to do guys --exhaust it below the undertray and a small manually operated fan on top of it. I used the seat warmer circuit for it and placed a switch on the console like the seat warmer. It matches my w/m switch.

Found this locally, what do you think OD, are the cooler different for oil vs water? I found some differences but it's tube and fin which some lower end radiators are too.
still think you should try my idea ..... you must already have the oil coolers to do it and funnily enough not only do they they fit perfectly but you even have the ducting to seal it off . You won't need fans because they are in the air stream - the best location possible .

If I recall correctly I just cut the thread off the original oil fittings the tapped them 3/8"bsp (I think) then used BSP fittings with some hydraulic loctite to seal both threads .
the tubes look a little small for good volume of circulation and the fins are close together.
it wouldnt be my 1st choice

this is mine---very open fined, large tubes with fin inside them to break up the water stream etc.https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1278459581
