That stock tranny temp gauge is nothing but an idiot light. If you think your trans temp reaches normal operating temp in the short time that gauge says it does, think again. If you are towing, you WANT the trans temp gauge. I put in engine oil temp, tranny temp and EGT. The stock boost gauge is good enough.( I don't have a tuner) My two cents worth.
