Default Lets talk about cooling

I have three obsession when i build a track car one of them is cooling, i have 3 oil cooler on my white AE86, one of them just like my DIY oil cooler. but im more particular on my radiator, i dont run a thermostat or any restrictions on my track car, a lot of people disagree with me on this but they give me scenarios on what will happen to my motor but problem is i never have any problem like that ever since ive been doing it to my AE86. friends say i go over board on my cooling, i say i rather go over board than have nothing at all, you may agree with me or not but i've been doing this to all my modified car for more than 10 years never had any problems. so tell me what you think whats your opinion on cooling.

i agree with you 4agze cooling is important i want to get a mishimoto radiator but i dont want to shell out 300+ for a radiator right away

but i am going to build an oil cooler for my civic sedan after i swap it i work in a shop that deals with 80% deisels and 10% electric and 10% gasoline and we get a lot of oil coolers that go throught our shop so i am sure i can get my hands on one for really cheap
