No problem with the pics . I also felt a difference after doing the cooler just seemed to shift better overall. Especially after being on the interstate for long periods of time.

is 21 bucks a good intercooler or is it better to go with a b&m for 50?

how hard is it to install?

ya the 21$ cooler is a good one... (hayden) they also have a hi-pro one for about 35$ just another 2" worth of surface area. but the install was very easy...... prolly one of the easiest things ive ever done to the car.. took me about 20 mins to install with the mounting kit that was included.

lol, mine was a pain in the ass trying to fit in in between the fmic and ac condenser, and moving pipes around to get to the line fittings. so i have a fmic, tranny cooler, ac condenser, then radiator lol.

Atleast you remembered to clamp all the hoses tight . I on the other hand left one lose and dumped a gallon of tranny fluid on the garage floor.

looks like i'll have a little project monday. i'll try the tranny cooler and then the oil cooler before the turbo goes in.

good idea jez.

wow, i dont know if its just me or not, but i think the cooler makes a big difference in how the car is shifting. it seems a lot smoother, at least at WOT. well worth the 30 or so bucks, especially if it saves your tranny...

Just wondering about you guys and the coolers you have. I have noticed that no matter how hot the tranny gets my B&M cooler never seems to get anywhere near hot.

Hmmm. That doesnt seem right man. How did you run your cooler? Straight from the transmission or did you go through the stock cooler?
