   They done have an oil cooler, i can tell you that for sure.
   
   I think the VTR fuel pump is a higher pressure than the VTS one so your alright there.
   
   Having only overheard chat about the last point i cant say for certain, either sort out a fuel return or block it off? Id wait till someone with experience answers that though
   
   EDIT: Noticed you have a furio, i would imagine an uprated pump would be required, someone will confirm this though.

   Block fuel return off with a screw in the pipe with a little jublilee clip around it. Also wack some sealer in it too to be sure.
   
   As with the pump, idealy you need a VTS one, im still running a VTR one but my spark plugs seem OK, the brownish colour. Make sure its NOT running lean at first, this could melt your engine and I'd advise getting it on the Rolling Road ASAP to get a proffesionals point of view for the fueling.

   all vts' have oil cooler, often called heat exchange.
   it shouldn't run lean as the vtr fpr is 3.5 bar and vts is 3 bar so fuelling should be ok.
   also just read you have furio, not sure on pump or fpr on them, i would suggest going for a vtr/vts pump and fpr

   fpr should come with the engi9ne on teh end of the fuel rail. not sure where it is on the furio as it may be under the seat, this will need to be changed to a vts or vtr 1, i wouldnt pay more than £20.

   block the fuel return off with a screw, jubilee clip, glue and sealant.
