I think that might be overkill. I would say normally the factory setup should be able to handle stock hp and stuff. So adding one would be extra protection. A second one might not make a difference in it or a noticeable one.

Too much cooling means your tranny fluid never reaches optimum temperature. Thats not such a good thing. Thats why they have different sizes for different cars.

really man, that would be over board. MAYBE it would be cool if you were in a REALLY high temperature climate, or REALLY high horsepower, but if you went over 350 hp I'd suggest just gettinga Dr Evil tranny, and stick with a single transmission cooler. http://www.dreviltransmissions.com

get a B&M tranny cooler. it doesn't actually cool the fluid until it reaches a certain temperature (the viscosity or thickness becomes less). this means that you get cooling only when you need it. any like rice said, too much is not good.

you wouldn't notice a difference It's not going to help performance but it's gonna keep your trans cooler so it lasts longer, overheating is the cause of about 80% of tranny failures.

Sorry to go off topic with this...I just thought that you notice it shift smoother? I've heard people say after alot of driving that it doesn't get rough. Yea well even if I don't notice any thing it makes me feel good to know that I have extra protection

Race continuously for about an hour...then get back to me.

I noticed big differences on how the car acts after a night of racing.
