i had one, it was cool. i dont know if it made any difference but the install was fun atleast, thats when i learned you can drive a car up on ramps on a slick concrete floor...unfortunately i sent a trans to rock-on with the pan on there and they sent me a completely different trans...

Not nearly as effective as a well-placed cooler. Not much air goes through those small, restricted tubes.

I have a big cooler also. Just figured id replace the stock pan with something that could hold more fluid. This one has a 2 quart increase over stock and is over $100 cheaper that the b&m. Plus the cooling tubes make sense..

I used it on my 99 (in addition to a cooler). It helped lower temps.

I like the TCI pan the best, but this was more affordable.

this pan is stamped, not cast aluminum like i think the b&m is. i also had a cooler in conjunction with the pan, but i had no gauge so theres no telling if it did anything, i would buy another one though...
