Don't buy the smallest...waste of money really. I'm currently running the middle on of the three listed above...actually two of em. It goes through one and into the other then back to tranny. Definitely makes a difference

Right, you've got a GXP so that would be the best way to go. A trans cooler on a GXP in hot temps is an absolute must. A GT in hot temps is recommended at the least. I may try to just get the biggest one and use it, I don't really want to do duel coolers. I'm gonna get a few pics of the space available.

I think you'd still be fine without a thermal bypass or anything.

Re: What did you do to your Car today?
In Michigan winter weather, it often stays around 20°F. Too cold for a large trans cooler in my opinion.

No, the only hose that I had to run was from the trans lines (that came out of the radiator) to the cooler external cooler.

The hose that comes with the cooler was more than enough.

In the winter I'll just take the lines out of the cooler and sick them back in the radiator. Then when it gets hot outside again, I'll just hook them back into the cooler instead.

Just make sure to plug the stock radiator with a plug so dirt and all don't get in it. Same for the external coolers when their not in use
