No reason you shouldn't mount an oil cooler there, plenty of airflow on the move assuming you have an STI 8 style scoop. You could help matters further by using the same method I have seen some apply on topmount intercoolers.
Purchase yourself one of these and fit it to the bottom of the oil cooler to draw air through it even when stationary.

Trigger it through the fan relay and it will activate itself when necessary.
They have them in a fair few sizes, so if the one I picked doesn't fit, I'm sure you'll find one that will.
