is it applicable for manual trannys or is it not needed?
will it be harder if your car does not have a stock tranny cooler?
thanks

Most cars (like ours) have a stock automatic transmission cooler built into the radiator, and it's connected to the transmission via fluid lines, so it's all a matter of connecting the hoses...

Our MTs don't need a transmission cooler, unless you're doing something so crazy that you can actually get the thing to overheat. It would be pretty hard to install one because there aren't any fluid lines running from a MT to any stock cooler (radiator), and there wouldn't be anything pumping the fluid...

yeah, mainly because we had to use the brackets. plastic straws were way too thick to pass thru a/c condenser...

yeah, the only time I could barely notice anything was when I was at an autocross and it seemed to shift harder, but it could have been the cold weather, or me just BSing myself. Eh, not bad protection for $60...
