    Hi All,
    Im in the process of replacing my broken oem radiator with a new Koyorad
    Im auto tt, and thus need to fit a seperate trans cooler
    How large is the unit incorporated in my old OEM rad ?
    What size new seperate unit can I get away with ?
    Where is best place to mount ?
    What have others done successfully ?
    Brand names and suppliers would be greatly appreciated
    Many thanks
    Henk

    I followed K-Zed's article in the tech section and bought a PWR cooler . Good brand and i got mine when it was on sale.
    Turn oil cooler around 180 deg and mount transmision cooler between it and the thermo fan

    I have sold a few of these http://www.rgsperformance.com/product/automatic-transmission-cooler-kit/ to members. They fit and work well and the kit includes everything you need for installation.

    I mounted mine in under the rad at an slight angle as not block all the air flow upper side of the bottom air dam

    This works a treat no hassle it’s out the way and works in a twin turbo as well as n/a :D it’s like the spot was maid for it everything bolts up as per usual and it’s out the way ;) and it’s eazy and quick as the cooler sits inside the fan ;):D

    Also remember to blow out your ac condenser with a air compressor ;) will keep the air flowing and keep it cool :cool::D will put up pictures soon
