We are very lucky however to already have a few aftermarket parts to beef up the transmission for forced induction, which if you were going down that path...would seem obvious to do.
It seems the general consensus on having a tranny cooler is if you track the car. Judging by the data posted by others and the release of two kits for our cars, it looks to be needed. I'll be picking up a cooler as well later this month.

That's why I make my first thread...
Buy the car on summer 2012, FI since vortech release their SC and beating the living 5hit ever since. No problem up to date.
First tranny oil change at 10k miles, nasty... Oil cooler is a must if you desire to keep the car.
Following closely SSP but not completely sure about the valve body work. Sound good lets wait a review.
