I do not have before and after, but I do know Auto's do not like getting hot so I never tried without a trans cooler
I run a TruCool 40btu mounted closest to clean air behind lower grill. Heat Exchanger up top.
Also I recommend to set your tap shift setting to still UP shift on shift points for you automatically, one less thing to think about. This setting should only activate at WOT when at the predetermined shift RPM/Vehicle Speed. Kind of a safety net to stay off the limiter and focus on passing being passed or braking! You can still shift early etc with buttons
Keep control of downshifts obviously.

My trans tune is set to upshift automatically even when in manual mode. Just last year I noticed a quirk when the trans temp rose , it would upshift earlier for what I suspect was a transmission saving mode and would not let me downshift as soon as I liked. When temps came down, it would act normal. Need to keep temps lower this time at NCM.
Thanks for your input.
