My 2001 Italian Stallion money pit build

I was just thinking...
will the oil cooler prevent my engine from reaching proper oil temperature in cold weather? Like the supermiata radiator does for my water temp? I need to carry a piece of cardboard constantly, and block off the radiator if the ambient temp is under 45 degrees.
Should I place the oil cooler somewhere that I can access easily to block it off? I don't really see any colder than 20*F.
I got the 16 row setrab. TDR intercooler and A/C condenser are both in front of the radiator. (I also have coolant reroute)
Thanks guys

Leave your OEM oil/coolant mixer in place. That will warm the oil up in cold weather. The Setrab plate we ship has a 205*F thermostat, higher than the standard unit that other companies ship with their kits.
It is a DIY kit, so you will need to devise and fabricate your own mounting solution.

I just remembered, my car has the stock exhaust, and is quiet. No intercom needed.
I was thinking about the track days I used to do in my super loud impreza. Instructor and I would be yelling at speed, and when he had to explain something complicated, I just put my hazards on and went slow so I could hear.
