I have 2 external coolers - one with a fan- I rarely get up to 180 unless I take a trip to the dragon or autocross or something like that (in which case 5 coolers probably wouldn't help)
I don't see a need to heat the tranny to over 190 every day. My 17 mile trip to work every day rarely heats the tranny up to 160.

I might run the PWR cooler this winter to help the warmup/ 4th gear shift though.

I got a temp gauge so I've seen before and after temps.
Cool. That's the kinda info I was looking for...

Plus, as I have 4.44 gears, the atf in my trans will be pumped around at a faster rate when driving compared to stock 3.55 gears...
