where to measure tempeature where should i tap in my trans fluid to read the temp on my gauge sender?
pan, pressure line (pre-cooled) returnline (post-cooled)?

The pan is the best place to get a good overall reading .

I just put mine in the pressure port in the side of the trans it screws right in. Ive heard people say the temps are the same in the pressure port as the pan by what the PCM is reading with tuning software and ive heard its 5-15 degrees off....I really dont think 5-15 degrees is going to be do or die where my temps are sitting so I went that route.
