fmugur is on a distinguished road
I installed mine as civdiv. The temperature is lower but I have to do some measurements to show the exact difference. It was a challenge to cut the return line and insert the new lines due the inner diameter differences.
An interesting thing when adding oil to the tranny was the temperature measured with IR vs. temperature from inpa. I got about 86 with the Infrared temperature reader and 102 with inpa. I know the temp sensor in the tranny is on the harness which is right at the fill plug lever. I expected the temp to be the same and I wonder why it wasn't. It could be inpa or the sensor in the harness or could be the oil vs. coolant or...
I tried to get the temp from gt1 but I couldn't find it easily. I will try again and compare the readings.

Anyway, so far I am happy with the 2-1 downshift that does not happen or at least it did not happen although I tried hard. Hopefully that was it.
