My car was running hot on the highway after a fmic install. Around 210 even after ducting and a good fan setup. So I decided to install an oil cooler. I bought the following setup:

The oil cooler itself is a 19 row cooler and is a nice design. I got everything setup, fired the car up, my oil pressure is normal as it was before the install and now the car runs at 195-200 on the highway on a hot day instead of 210. The weird part is I put my hand on the cooler it is cool to the touch. Both the return line and feed line from the oil filter are hot/warm.
Can the oil cooler be just that efficient. I figured there could be a blockage in the cooler itself, but being brand new and running the car 10 degrees cooler on the highway makes me believe this is not the case. I spent sometime wrapping my mind around this simple problem and that is what I have come up with. Any input is appreciated.
Thank you
