Since my wife dosent care about Trans. temps.........

.............since my wife dosent care about turbo 350 trans. temps, I guess I'll tell you guys. After all the fun I had puttin this in I just have to tell someone who might at least care or know what I am talking about. She needs to only have alarm bells and whistles....she dosent even read the gas gauge......or the speedo for that matter. Anyway ordered gauge and cooler from
Summit. Purposefully drove around for 2weeks without the cooler installed to get a baseline temp reading. Then installed the cooler. Here is what I found:

No trans Cooler (only factory in the rad.):
Around town normal driving (12miles) 180 degrees
Around town simi-hard driving (12miles) 195 degrees
Freeway only driving (20miles) 175 degrees

With cooler installed:
Around town normal driving (12 miles) 160 degrees
Around town simi-hard driving (12 miles) 175 degrees
Freeway only driving (20miles) 150-155 degrees
