oil cooler

Does anyone know anything about oil coolers? I'd like to get one. Either a sandwich adapter or a oil filter relocation kit. How much horsepower would it take to push oil through about 10' of hose and an oil cooler? I'd probably run the hose to the back of the car (like under the drivers side seat). It'd be hard to run the hoses to the front of the car because my shorty headers are pretty close to the front of where the oil filter goes. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

You could get the OEM one which is decent. It helps you warm up the oil faster in cold weather. Thing I am not sure about is when the weather turns cold, what the effect of this cold oil be if you have an oil cooler at the front.

I think you would be wasting your money, But if you decide to get one, you should go OEM.
