mate. i bought one of branko. get the B&M supercooler, keep the trans nice and cool. only costs $150 with all hoses and clamps required to hook it up. top piece of gear. alternatively i have the old bt1 transcooler off my car - u can have it for $5 haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

is it a bt1? maybe the auto died and they put in a new one and didnt include the transcooler. maybe the transcooler was leaking so they got rid of it? many possibilities?

My first Calais had a factory tow pack which had the factory trans cooler on it, however a Berlina I just got with a factory tow pack didn't have it on. Many things could have happened in the 18 years since the car was released. Trans coolers will make a difference - if you love your auto, you should get one.
