Being precautious...
I'm not sure if any of you know but..as clean as my car is , it still has 110k miles ..i know that is NOTHING to a 3800, but it is to a tranny ..and supercharged makes it even worse. My tranny is fine now, but in the near future i have a feeling that my time will come for a new tranny. ..now how effective is an aftermarket tranny cooler? at this point in time , a new tranny would kill my budget and my parents would have to help..and they are payin for college so i dont really wanna ask for anything more..so i'm just kinda worried. ..but i still want to have fun tranny cooler a good idea?

Get one Ryan. It will help prolong the life even if it has a lot of miles on it.
I still have to get one, and should have a while ago since I'm modded now, but my tranny (knock on wood) seems to be fine still. I figure winter is coming and I'm not going to drive it hard so I should be fine for a while. I just hope mine doesn't go before I can afford to fix it. :?
I can't wait till I have a Boost gauge.

Pegs the boost gauge. Haven't lost a race yet. Can't do any real times yet, but I know I get 10lbs. or better of boost. I STILL get a rush when I step on it.
