An oil cooler can keep the oil from overheating thus extending the life of your engine. This is called for in racing, or in extended high-speed driving. Normal driving does not benefit from an oil cooler, as oil is designed to work at a temperature of around 200 degrees Farenheit. Cold oil is is also bad. In a stock engine, the oil is cooled internally by the engine coolant, hence the importance of keeping the water temperature below 200 degrees, for example by using a 180 degree Thermostat.
