auto tranny cooler for a turbo civic - Honda Forum / Acura Forum

aerotrends · 05-11-2002, 08:38 AM

anybody know of a good tranny cooler I could use on my turbo civic?

I'm only runnin 5.5lbs of boost at the moment but I'd rather be safe then sorry.

you wanna trade the tranny oil cooler for the engine oil cooler?

Greddy makes tranny coolers, but i'm not positive if they make them for civics. If not B&M makes a series of them.
If you need help finding sites where they are sold, just ask
peace

p.s. what the hell is B18c5turbo trying to say?

i was gonna ask the same thing...does he mean you can use the oil cooler as a tranny cooler?

ill_take_one · 05-11-2002, 02:54 PM

I dont think that he even knows what he's saying. I think his sentence is worded wrong or something.

his question is simple...stop reading too much

he's wondering if there's an auto tranny cooler for a civic since maybe he saw them for accords and such.

i dunno if there are....i'm pretty sure there has to be

I dont know who youa re talking to,,,but i think YOU need to go back and read.

I responded to "aerotrends" by saying what the hell was "b18c5turbo" saying.
Then i clearly said there ARE oil coolers available
You are lost.
peace

just look up further in the thread

rather than go tit for tat going...'you're lost...no you're lost' i'll end it now before we both look like children

a tranny cooler is not a must but engine oil cooler is a must for turbo
btw tranny oil cooler has smaller oil passage then engine oil cooler

I feel that the tranny cooler IS a must. I heard that if the tranny temp increases by even 10-15 degrees it will reduce the life of the tranny by 50%!!! I'd say its a MUST for honda auto trannies...because they are known to not be very strong, especially under boost.

cool..anybody ever use greddy's oil cooler? and is it really worth 200$ more than a b&m one?

b18c5turbo · 05-12-2002, 02:21 PM

get the b&m its cheaper and does the same job

aerotrends · 05-12-2002, 04:09 PM

i know i've asked this before..but no one knows of any tranny coolers that are reputable? or are they universal? i saw one in a jeg's catalog for like 25$ but that seems a little too cheap?
