I've used an oil cooler from pegasus... worked great, and costs way less than some of the absolutely rediculously priced other ones out there. No reason to pay out the ass for the exact same thing.

Just any oil cooler will do. Honda don't run that hot to justify a 19row cooler.
Just a small cooler or transmisson cooler (clean it out first) and it will run fine.
You only want to drop the temp 10-20 degrees otherwise your gonna effect the efficiency of your car as it will run too cold.
Your gonna need the sandwich plate and some lines to run the cooler. The sandwich plate will cost anywhere from $50 to $120 depending on brand and where you get it.

The cooler, i got a cooler for about $50.

I've done one before and it was only a tiny cooler on a 20v. It does help especially if your always revving the engine.

I'm doing one on my civic as soon as i get the sump baffle sorted out.
