In stop and go traffic for 30min on a 115* day here in phoenix I finally got it up to a whooping 145* trans temp. That was the highest it ever got, way too cool for optimal trans operation and fluid life. So yes, you can go too big.

That is why you run it through the external cooler first, then the radiator.
