Not necessary unless you are going to be doing some wicked SCCA or track events. The N/A really doesn't get that hot, and even if it does, you're fine as long as it doesn't overheat. Nissan put oil coolers on auto 280zxt's to keep the turbo from cooking too much.

Wouldn't hurt. But it's a good idea to get a bypass valve to go with it if it's going to be used for street use. Otherwise your oil will be at a less than optimal operating temperature. But all the same, it's a waste of money for strictly street use.
