    Probably, I dont feel the need for a shift kit after dans tune so thats one less thing for me to break.

    Still worth throwing a shift kit in bud.. You want to prolong potential transmission problems for as long as possible.. Remember your moms car...

    Cheap insurance.... I say. And you really can't screw up a trans cooler install plus the write up that's on here won't leave you in the dark..

    Their reasoning is hilarious for why a trans cooler is bad. Their main reason is because of user install errors.

    I guess the worst is if the cooler line blows off and you end up torching the car. But a few clamps and some good barbs and it should be cake.

    Always slightly flare the cooler lines if that's how you're going to hook it up. That's what I did, the hose was actually a bit hard to slide over the flare; with clamps it won't come off.

    I cut the soft line and used a double barb. It was a b!tch to get over the barb. It isn't coming apart easily.

    Series. That's the way I always install them. In the colder months the radiator actually serves and a fluid warmer.
