Data available for effect on engine temperature before & after installing Radiator

Do you have any data available regarding the effect on engine temperature before and after this mod? I'm interested to know exactly how much of an impact this makes on a 996 used for DE's also used as a daily driver. Personally, I question the effectiveness of this mod because I don't recall my engine temps ever climbing any higher on the track than in stop & go traffic on the highway. Obviously, it has to help a little bit - potentially more important for an autocross car than a DE car which gets a lot more air through the radiators.

FYI, it would also be nice to know how much in Liters the coolant capacity increases as a result of this mod.
