Has anyone upgraded thier 2006 oil cooler to a larger one or fitted the 2008 8-row cooler?

I'm guessing any increase in oil cooling capacity will help the fan run less?

Can't be done without major work. You will also need to replace about half the engine to get the other oiling system changes to get the oil cooler to work. Part of the issue is that the old style oil pump isn't beefy enough for the bigger cooler.

Think you can add an oil filter from a Scion and it's bigger than the uly one. More oil : )
