MR Trans Cooler Fan
Who here have installed a fan for their transmission cooler?
What kind of fan are you using? CFMS? Size?
How did you mount it? Custom brackets? Pics?
How did you install it? On/Off switch? Controllers?
How good does it work? How frequent does "slow down" symbol come up during harsh driving conditions?
Post lots of pics if you have one.
Does any other vendors plan to make trans cooler?
I know Vorshlag Motorsports installed one.

Spy Pics SST Cooler
HKS also make one but i can find much info on them.

I guess not (other than the guys at Vorshlag). I'm looking to do one soon, but will likely just have Brian and Terry take care of it.

Installed Oil Cooler Fan: Pics Inside. Cost:$94 Benefit:10-15 degree drop
I installed one for my oil cooler on my 8. My thread may help or give you some ideas. Good luck...

Cools the cooler only if its not heatsoaked .. once heatsoaked .. you're quite screwed ..
Prolonged high rpm high speeds bring the temps up to 100+ .. you're screwed ..
The fan allows you to run slightly longer .. but it can't prevent the inevitable 
Other options in the works now as some of you know .. cheaper daily driven options .. versus more expensive upgrades ..
Ultimately a 2nd cooler has to go in if I keep tracking my car ..

The X feels very heavy - although it certainly handles very well
