Default RR Racing Cooling Package

I wasn't sure how big a difference this would make in a real world situation but wow:

I have an 08 with 181k on the clock currently and the Vegas desert during summer is kinda brutal to say the least. Its nothing to see 200F coolant temps & 195F trans temps and that's not even driving aggressively, that's just a regular 110-115 degree summer day and leaving work heading home. I ordered the Koyorad/Setrab trans cooler with silicone hoses beginning of the year but just got it installed this past Friday and the difference was immediately seen. We just hit 110 degrees yesterday and even driving like I had somewhere to be, coolant temps never went over 188F consistently and trans temp never went over 170F, and that's with 30 min driving home in 110 degrees in sport mode(no shifting). I don't track my car but conditions here can be just as brutal so every little bit helps, this definitely was worth it.


Now if I could have as much fun as you guys in nicer climates and not have to worry about 120F-130F intake temps that would be great lol
