Got low oil pressure? I got the solution!!!!
Ever since I got the car i've been getting low oil pressure, maxing out at 40 psi no matter how high I revved. Today I was trying to fix a leak at the oil filter adapter so I removed the oil cooler, NOW IM GETTING ALL MY OIL PRESSURE I SHOULD BE GETTING! Find of the century if you ask me!
REMOVE THAT ****ING OIL COOLER!!!!!!

If you dont have lower oil pressure then leave it, I agree. What happens is stuff gets clogged in the oil cooler over time acting as its own oil filter and it blocks your oil...

Thats nothing new 
I pulled mine off awhile ago and picked up about 10 psi. The cooler will actually act like a bypass to the filter once it gets a little dirty.
Once the cooler is pulled, you can also run a filter which is about 2x as big.
