I don't think anything is as good as the OEM.
There's a webpage (sorry wish I could reference it) of a 13B in a plane and the guy tried several aftermarket coolers before switching to a OEM cooler. The difference in oil temp was quite large.

It would seem, similar to radiators, that the more rows the fluid passes through the better, or cooler if you will. A comparison of product and data, between oem and aftermarket would be useful, although the development that goes into oem products seems to be more than aftermarket, due to a bigger budget im assuming...
oem is good but can be improved upon.

I found a note in the MazdaTrix Catalog. They say they have tried all the aftermarket stuff and nothing is as good as the OEM... So I guess that confirms it. I suppose someone could run 2 of them?
