Default Boosted R in need of an oil cooler advice

I have a 2000 R that has the drag kit on it. I am interested in getting an oil cooler for it. I have seen new kits from $125 to $700. What opinions do you all have? I just do solo 2 for now but want to road race some day. I have also seen you guys talk about over cooling the oil. What can happen if this occurs and how do you prevent it?

Please start here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=766629

Then search here: https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch
Don't forget to search the archives.

There have been several posts lately regarding oil coolers both in this forum and the road race/autox forum.

And you are a trial user because you just signed up. You cannot post in seveal forums or send IM's until you become a regular user, which happens in a couple weeks or so. This keeps trolls to a minimum.

Happy hunting.

Edit: if you still are lacking information, IM me when your trial period is over, or email me. I have a boosted R with an aftermarket cooler.

Oil cooler would be a good idea, don't go real cheap and there's no need to bust the bank.
Install an oil temp gauge with a probe in the pan to see the results and keep an eye on things.
