Quite ... if you go with this, you'll want to go to a lower viscosity oil
The engine is designed for these high temperatures. In order to compensate for increased cooling, you'll need to adjust the oil so that the viscosity at operating temperature is the same as it was stock. This will ensure the proper oil flow, bearing hydrodynamic lift, and internal drag reduction. Otherwise, internal wear and fuel consumption can increase.
In Europe they already run 5W30 weight oil. With enough cooling, the operating weight could potentially be reduced to a 5W-20 racing oil.
