i could be wrong but i only read about cars with turbo/superchargers/nitrous having oil coolers since all of the above force the engine to have more power than it can usally handle.

You could run one with an N/A engine, it'll only be helpful if it's running hard though. Otherwise, the cooling systems in the engine get the job done fine. It'll prolong the engine life, but it's not going to give you extra power. There have been some threads about this before.... might wanna search if any survived the move.

ak can only hope to improve
yep, i asked about the oil cooler a month ago. A tranny cooler on the other hand would definetely help. My friend got one installed on his 02 Accord and it shifts like a champ now! Noticeable difference.

it costed like $70 for the tranny cooler and some BME or BEM filter.
