removing the belly pans, and the silencer cowel can help to reduce temps under the hood. Engine cover would help to keep heat in and away from the intake track so if you have dci then the heat would get sucked right in to the intake. I notice temps are about 15 degrees lower and my car has NO OIL COOLER.
I had a similar experience with Mobile 1 0-40 however when I began to look at ambient temps, they happend to be about 20degrees cooler after my oil change as well. If you plan to document a profound change in temps and want the info to be valid, make sure you take into consideration ambient temps as well.
