I don't think you want to to be too cool. The tranny fluid has an optimal temperature range, and if you go below that it will be too thick to protect properly. Not sure what the range is, but something to watch out for. Some of the coolers out there are thermal drop coolers, meaning that the thicker fluid bypasses the heat exchanger until it heats up and thins out enough to drop into it.
