would like good mech advice
 
I have an auto sport with headers , berk cats , Fast Intentions exhaust , stillen underdrive pulley , Gen 3 intake with modded grill , and Technosquare reflash. My question is I want to occaisionally track my car and am worried about cooling for the transmission ( I have oil cooler and am getting a diff cooler ) When running my car hard I am always in manual mode supposedly locked up , is this straight gears or should i worry about heat , I love this tranny and want to take care of it .
Second question is when doing the 1/4 , 1st and 2nd spin very easily and there is a big jump to 3rd , I feel if 1 and 2 were taller it would hit just perfect going into 3rd , I didnt have technosquare move the rev limit to 8000 and think if they did it may be what I am looking for ?

"manual mode" - as in you have a 7AT?

That transmission is a traditional AT, just it's "snappier" in it's shifts. You'll want a transmission cooler for it.

when you are tracking your car are you talking DRAG or ROAD COURSE?

I wouldn't even second guess it?Definetly a trans cooler no matter how you track it.For sure a road course will put more strain on the trans and make more heat but either way I would have a good cooler.

thanks
 
Thanks guys ! I'm mainly worried about a road course as this builds a lot more heat than when I do the 1/4 , and yes I have a 7at and love it , I think I will start looking into a tranny cooler ,
