Oil must be up to proper operating temperature to be effective. Running a motor hard on oil that is either not hot enough OR too hot can cause damage to the reciprocating parts.
Thus, unless you're running the engine VERY hard, it's likely you will not need an oil cooler. Typically turbocharged engines use a cooler because the oil cools the hot-assed turbo cartridge (the center section where the bearings are)
