Factory oil cooler sucks, I just chunked it. M-1 Red Top Changed every 10 tanks of Fuel. (100 miles at the track, 250 "normal"and 450 in "Hypermile"

I never did P&G per say. Just let it idle down, see 1000 deg EGT and shut it down.
Just running an upgraded CT26 $400 for a new one so wasn't a big deal.

I was driving 85 miles per day in some of the worst stop and go traffic I've ever dealt with. 0-50-0-50-0-50 every 1.5~3 miles. I would run it up to speed at "0" psi idle it down, shut it off coast to stop; repeat. Sometimes I got to to not quite stop which helped out hugely. It was alot of work. But on the + side I have a vac resovoir + pump (for longer turbo Burnouts at the Track I would push through the lights and be disqualified); didn't really matter on the street.
