Recommend Transmission Cooler?
So I've been contemplating upgrading my Transmission Cooler and was wondering what other alternatives I have other then AMS? I run AMS LICP and was told that there setup will not fit properly running there own LICP...
Anyone running an alternate SST Cooler (not AMS) have some feedback or recommendation?
I think Mitsubishi's design isn't really all that poor (I know the core size is small but not insufficient) , but there location/placement of the cooler was not well thought out. Anyone running the stock or alt SST Cooler in another location (such as front of car somewhere mounted to the front bumper beam?
Thanks!

Also, if you're looking to make big amounts of hp in the MR you'll want to consider the SSP clutch pack.

Our LICP will work with the cooler, however you will have to space the LICP down a little bit. This can be done by making a bracket to lower the mounting point on the side of the radiator support about 1.5-2". I am waiting to get a car here at the shop so I can finalize something and get it up for sale.

Please keep me in mind when you guy's release an extension bracket for your cooler!
Thanks!

... HR2L, there are a ton of companies coming out with coolers (blitz, Robispec, hks, etc). Not to mention you can easily make your own like gunzo did. I'd rather have a front mount SST cooler myself. This is the path i'm going to take. So far no one has really made a front mount above the IC.

Going to talk to Tommy @ GST and have him fabricate a front mounted transmission cooler for me using the the Setrab core. Im sure I can get the pieces and labor for far under $1500. The SSP Deep Pan though is cherry!
Have to save a bit of coin for that bling!
