IMHO, I don't see any circumstance where someone would need a second cooler for street driving. I put a manual fan switch in my center console that turns the oil cooler fan on high-speed. Sitting in 95-degree traffic with the AC on for lengthy periods of time, my temps have never even cracked 200F. For street driving, it's all about the fan creating airflow over the cooler.
The factory setup is absolute garbage and allows the car to run too hot. It's an hour DIY to put an override switch in. It was the first thing I did when I got my 993.

Obviously a bit more effort than the Ruf/Cargraphics cooler.
