Cool Two ways of looking at it

#1) If you use the car only locally, and it does not overheat, you don't need it

#2) if you plan on touring or other activities that may get you into hot(ter) conditions, then install one with an oil temp thermostat...this allows flow only above a certain oil temp. be sure to drain the oil in the cooler and lines when doing an oil change.
