I have a tic on the bench and i would like to improve the cooling and moreover to have faster optimum oil temp level temperature.
That's why i thought about an oil/water cooler like on the golf 2 and 3.
it's the same engine with 2 cylinders less so...
i've seen a member that did it here on his 244.

I know threre is a radiator with a thermostat from factory but i would heat up the oil quick to avoid wear better and maybe add a sandwich plate to install oil pressure and temp sensors.
it will go for a na engine first and a tic engine in a 245.
If you have ideas or experience or advices !
