I switched to the new large OEM filter, my oil temps are noticeably lower..
keep in mind i have the S4 oil cooler and k04 as well,
small filter + s4 oil cooler + m1 5w-40 = peak oil temp at about 212-215F
large filter + S4 oil cooler + m1 5w-40 = peak oil temp at about 205-208F
oil capacity is around 4.5 quarts.

I wouldn't think that makes any difference
seeing how temps compare on a hot day after beating on the car would me more interesting.
I thought I was seeing cooler temps on my car, but I switched from the updated OEM filter to the smaller NAPA filter 2 weeks ago and my tamps appear the same. Although I haven't read them from the VAG, only the gauge where it's tough to read with precision. I am around 215 degrees cruising with a WOT run here and there. OEM oil cooler and GT28RS @ 15 psi.
