So... from a non-technical standpoint, what are we talking about? An exhaust repair of some type I assume and that doesn't leave much. I recall our conversation about how a turbo could be considered a muffler of sorts.

Hey Kris can you tell by the difference in the stock gauge compared to your new gauges if the BTS tranny runs cooler, or about what your stock tranny ran for temps compared now with the Sexy new gauges? I think im going to run a fan setup behind a billet grill, its starting to get hot down here and i put my finger on my Xtra tranny cooler the other day and it was HOT, im not sure what optimum temp is for a tranny but cooler is better and it bout burnt my finger.

See thats the thing, i never had a trans temp before on my gauge. In just the 25 mins of driving i got it up to 135ish. If i go out for a drive i can PM you some temps. Yes, cooler is better, but you at least want to make the temp register on an aftermarket gauge. There can be a "not hot enough" for optimum performance.
