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.

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?

what are the sizes of the coolers you guys are using? my buddy got one from his work off of a saab and it's 10 inches long, 2 inches high, and 1.5 inches thick. would this be ok to use? i mean, it was free and all. if not, let me know what would be better and at a good cost.

Free sounds good to me for a good price! Sounds like it'd work too. Just gotta watch what its made of. Ive heard of stock coolers getting so hot they collapse and bend and cut off fluid. Which would defeat the purpose of cooling. Give it a try though! Couldnt hurt.

like the one i got is off a saab like i said. it's all shiny like stainless steal as compared to our stock black coolers. plus, it is 1 1/2 inches thick and 10 inches long so it seems it should be of some quality. oh well, i'll try and get it hooked up this weekend if it doesn't rain.

I am getting flow from it trust me I know the fluids going through it emoji . However the way I have it setup its in direct airflow and the fluid passes through the inline filter which is in an area where it gets airflow on the filter it then goes to the radiator and then to the cooler then back to the tranny. The cooler warms up but it doesnt get hot at all. When you feel the hose coming off the inline filter it feels nice and hot but when it makes it back out the cooler the hose is just slightly warm.

Take your intake off. Look straight down at your tranny. Two lines will be coming out. Run high pressure hose out of there into your tranny cooler. Pretty simpl emoji .

ok could i run a line from the tranny to a remote filter then from the remote filter to the cooler than back into the tranny. and if i would do this hot much if any tranny fluid would i loose or have to put back in. also where do those lines go to? the stock cooler? and would i have to take that out.

Its pretty simple. Id totally get rid of your stock cooler. Its nothing more than one line going across your radiator. What you do is...

Do what I said in the other post. Follow the rubber lines coming out of your tranny. They will hit hard lines. Get rid of all that you see going to the radiator. Should be two rubber lines and two hard lines stuck together.

Now, get a cooler/remote filter. Run from the left line coming out of the tranny into the remote filter, from there go into the cooler "in", from the cooler "out" go into the right side of the tranny.

Thats pretty generic, can be set up many ways but thats pretty much the simple way. Just ditch those shitty stock hard lines. Cause you'll be getting 3/8 line from autozone if you do it the way I had it done. THe stock lines are teeny, dont want that.

If you need more help hit me up on AOL. Screen names in the sig.
