I know maxcool keeps the fan and the water pump at 100%, i honestly dont know what it does oil wise. I popped my oil thermostat with the mindset that if it limited flow by 1% when my car needed it the most, i wanted nothing to do with it. I can let my car idle for a minute or two before i drive away, and JB4 keeps boost at stock level before oil ticks over 160F anyway, so im not worried about the "excessive warm up times" that the people that havent done the mod complain about. Im all for it. Its a free 5 minute fix.
