yeah i have one, didnt notice a performance gain with itmostly there for peice of mind. I wrote up a install procedure.
1) You need some hand tools screw drivers, pliers, utility knife, 10 mm socket, 1 qt. of DEXRON III ATF, 4 or 5 zip ties to mount the cooler, and have a friend come over to help...much easier.
2) You need to take the black cover off the underside of the car...I think 10 bolts.
3) If you look from the top of the radiator, just behind the radiator towards the bottom, you will see a black metal tube about 1/2 inch dia., that leads to the tranny. The other side of the tube goes to another rubber hose, then to the radiator. you need to disconnect the rubber hose from both the black metal tube and the radiator fitting. By using a good set of pliers you can squeeze the hose clamps and pull them off of both sides of the rubber hose and remove the hose completely. BE CAREFUL when you take the hose out, and put some cardboard down so tranny fluid doesn¡¯t leak all over your garage, only the fluid that remains in the tube will leak out. The fitting coming out of the radiator is turned towards the passenger side, but to make things easier you need to turn it the other way, BE VERY GENTILE WITH IT or you will crack the radiator. turn the bolt with the fitting to the right, then the it will be loose...he turn the bolt under it to tighten it, so it wont come loose.
4) Next, look down in front of the radiator you will see a sideways "U" shaped thing, that is the brake cooler, you will be mounting the cooler to that. But first you need to cut the rubber hose that is supplied with the kit. Take the hose and, hold it in half and cut one piece about 1.5-2 inches longer than the other hose. and then take both hoses and using the supplied hose clamps clamp the hoses to the inlet and the outlet, it doesn't matter which one you choose.
5) Next take the whole thing and put it behind the brake cooler, and in front of the radiator. Take the 2 hoses and pull them through one of the holes to the right of the radiator. Hook the shorter hose to the radiator fitting with the supplied hose clamp, and hook the longer hose to black tube, along with the hose clamp.
6) Your almost done...all you need to do is mount the cooler up. Take the little foam pads that came with the kit and stick them to the brake cooler so that the tranny cooler touches them and never touches the brake cooler. Now hold the tranny cooler up against the pads, and take the zip ties and zip tie the whole thing to the brake cooler, taking the zip ties through the things on the side of the tranny cooler, that look like "U"s, and the inlet, and the outlet of the tranny cooler.
7) Last step, take the ATF and find the tranny dipstick. it is well hidden on the passenger side of the engine bay under a bunch of hoses, it has a yellow grip. pull out the dipstick, and add about half a qt. of the ATF into the tranny, or as much needed.
8) You are now done~~!!!!!!
Go take a test drive...I didn¡¯t feel any power gain, but it's nice to know its there helping the tranny stay cool.
peace, and good luck with the install.
