I've done a lot of research on this transmission, it's also used in several other sports cars, the miata newsgroups were very helpful. I just re-read this whole thread. NOT ONE WORD ABOUT FLUID TEMPS! If you're using the stock cooler with FI, you're probably getting symptoms because the transmission got cooked. The stock intercooler is only good for street use. It doesn't have the capacity for track use. It can't even handle stop-and-go traffic without going above 200 degrees. The people who say this transmission can handle 450 HP are absolutely correct. They install an auxiliary transmission oil cooler first, to handle the extra heat. If you want to boost your AT car, install an auxiliary cooler first.
