Does anyone know of a larger oil cooler for the 400ex?

I'm running 20/50 oil already and am going to wrap the exhaust this weekend (for those of you who haven't done this, I highly recommend it), but I just want to keep it as cool as possible.

Or if anyone has any other ideas to help keep a 400 cooler, it would be appreciated. I know about the scoops and also the larger oil tank.

Are you running a 20w50 synthetic or just normal oil? If not run a synthetic, get a Larger oil tank and cooler (cant remember who makes them), air scoops might help a little but i highly doubt its noticable. Theres not really a much more you can do but those should help a little.

Theres many thing you can do for the oil cooler...There alot of places that make kits but they are not cheap. Ive even seen a Dual EX oil cooler setup all you need is like another cooler and the lines...DOES ANYONE HAVE ANYMORE INFO ON THE DUAL OIL COOLER SETUP? Ive looked and I cant find a thing but I know it can be done.

But see I dont want to TAP and all that stuff I just want to add another cooler. Such as the dual cooler mod but no one will tell me how to do it.
