Put together a setup using the mishimoto banjo fittings, and my own DIY cooler setup. Still getting it together, but enough that I was able to go for a drive today and noticed the same thing; the new path gets hot much more rapidly than the factory path. Could this configuration be bypassing the thermostat? Need a diagram of the oil filter housing. The new oil cooler was hot to the touch and the factory cooler was almost cool to the touch.
