Thinking about installing the GT2 transmission oil cooler and spray bar in my turbo transmission. Anyone done this already? Any problems or tricks I should know about? Where did you source the parts? Any electronics involved?

Call Gbox. Look on their website where they describe this mod. My guess is its pricey since it is pretty involved as it requires machining of the case. They do this mod and they are top notch. They are up the road from me north of Denver. Let me know what you find out as I'm considering doing this also. It is basically a must if you want to run a LSD

The OEM one requires removing part of the transmission housing for machining and modifying. The aftermarket ones require tapping the case, but do not include the 6 gear cooling like the GT2. I am not sure how important the gear cooling is by itself compared to the oil cooling in general.
