Default Tci 3500

I'm getting ready to install a TCI 3500 and trans cooler. The car has around 85,000 miles on it. How long do you think the stock trans will last? Mostly just street driving and maybe to the track a few times. Will I have to get it tuned?

Chances are you will not need a tune. But every tranny is different. If you do need a tune, it wouldn't be a "full" tune, and shouldn't cost you that much. But I'd say you'll probably be OK.
