Its only a cooler/ heater in the radiator end tanks the capillary size is very small so you will not have any issues running the smaller tubes size.

Mate if you like the idea of a scoop do it. Its your car! Personally i like the sleeper thing ;)

With the cooler - have you still got your EA Auto radiator in the car? Are you going to hook up the auto cooler / heater in the radiator end tank? I have always been told to keep the radiator hooked up as it warms the auto box up to operating temp sooner, but add the trans cooler aswell to keep temps down when working hard

Sleeper it is.coolers in and connected.I didn't run it thru the rad tank,but i see your point.The tcu holds gears longer when the tranny is cool.At the moment i have no gears ,it just changes idle settings when going thru the gears but no drive.Tomorrows job.
