You are talking about a trans cooler or a motor oil cooler?
Both. Want to add remote filter with engine oil cooler, and a trans cooler. Both B&M stacked plate coolers. The remote filter(s) and cooler can add over a quart more oil to the system, and thats a nice plus. I also get stuck in traffic jams in the summer just crawling on the highway with the A/C running, etc. Pretty rough on both engine and trans oils. Now with the PCM programed to run the fans at lower temps that match a 180 thermostat, coolers will really help extend the life of the engine and trans.

Besides, the coolers and filter mounts are rather inexpensive, and an easy, simple way to reduce wear on the car.

Been looking at Perma-Cool for the remote filter hardware, and B&M for stacked plate coolers. Seems B&M make the best coolers.
