Thanks for the update. I think it is pretty awesome that you figured out the parallel setup.
Looking forward to hearing how it performs on track.
I learned about a new product yesterday that I thought was interesting. It is a lower temp thermostat that replaces the stock thermostat. The nice thing is it opens at a slightly lower temp than stock, which is good for a mostly street car. I plan to order one and have it ready to go when I end up doing the oil cooler upgrade (I know, probably a waste of money but I like the ides of the oil starting to circulate a little sooner).
I wouldn't recommend ordering from the manufacturers website because shipping is crazy. ECS sells the product as well and I confirmed with their customer service that it is the same product as the one on FTP's website.
