It warms faster and stays warmer in the winter. No difference in the summer. In fact, you'll run cooler not sharing the radiator.
If you want to avoid that, you can install a thermal bypass in line with the cooler OR get a cooler that's internally bypassed. I'll be switching to the Hayden internal bypass this summer to get temps up in the cold a bit. Right now I have a single Hayden 679, gonna switch to dual 699's. That ought to do the trick.
