Trans-go

Im thinking about putting the Trans-go shift kit for my 99 z a4.
I just want to know if it would go with the mods i have now.
Do i need anything else with the shift kit? or can i just bolt it and go?

A trans-cooler is something you should seriously consider. With the extra stress the shift kit will put on the tranny, it'd be a good idea to prolong it's life.

I had a shift kit on my Roush and loved it. At the same time I also installed a B&M tranny cooler. Hope this helps.

How long do tranny coolers usually last?? because later on i might want to get a T. converter.
How much do tranny coolers run for anyways? Is that something i can install myself?

My mustang has 23k miles on it and I put it only shortly after I bought it new. I don't see a problem in them lasting unless somehow they get bent or somthing. I believe mine was under a 100 from Summit(don't have a catalog or I would check). The install was pretty simple also.

I don't know about the other ones but i think Tran-Go is the way to go. I was very happy with their product, I mean it even came with a video on how to install it.
