Auto Transmission Cooler

[LennyLexus]

Hi Guys,

I am limited by space for the fitting of the my tranny cooler, as I'm also have a PLP intercooler fitted.

I've been in touch with a UK company about getting one of these, they have quote me a size of 11” x 2-3/4” x 1 -1/2” (rated at 7,500 BTU). However US sites say the cooler is 11” x 4-1/2” x 1 -1/2” either way it will fit.

Is the rating sufficient? (i'll be going green as soon as there is a E85 station ere, so that should give upto 20% more power, so almost 260bhp).

Unfortunately the Polished Coolers dont come with a fitting kit like Supercoolers, what extras are required to fit these kits?

Cheers

Len

Heres daves,

Put simply, one British Thermal Unit [btu] is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of

1 pound [ lb.] of water 1 degree Fahrenheit.
