Gotcha. I wonder if it's doable to go with a larger cooler there and get some sort of fan on it. Now there isn't any room in the front of the factory cooler for a fan but behind it...if there was some sort of fan behind it sucking more air through it that would be just as beneficial.
Andrew I forgot to post the link lol....

Something like this. I know it will get direct air, but I am wondering it will make a difference. I will also allow me to run another 1.5 quarts of trans fluid....which always helps. I am getting pretty good at pulling the front clip off the car, so this weekend I may just pick this trans cooler up, and install it. There is one at my local speed shop for 5 bucks cheaper than jegs and summit. I have two quarts of trans fluid sitting on my shelf, so for $72 I am going to take the gamble....lol.

Redline Lightweight Shockproof Gear oil in PTU + RDU
Trans drain and fill Mercon LV
Radiator flush
Very happy with all changes thus far. Future plans are suspension upgrades, HPFP and Msd coils and brakes. Also I'm sick of my wheel/tire combo and would like to change. After that point engine and transmission upgrades would need to be done.
The Redline Lightweight Shockproof gear oil is the best I've ever felt my transmission operate. The addition of the Derale Cooler to my existing 13+ PP cooler helps but not specifically as I had thought. What the Derale Cooler does do is create a much slower temp rise in the trans fluid than before....it eventually still gets into the 190s and it topped out at 205 steady highway driving @75-80 mph with AC on. Goes back into the 190's with the AC off. But it starts dropping the trans temp in stop and go traffic and idling. I'll need to revisit how I ran the lines for it, I believe I'm reducing flow the way i have it now, just wanted to get it in.
First time out to the track on 8/2/19 I was a little disappointed initially but now I think it wasn't all that bad. I got only two runs in which really isn't enough to determine if I ran my best time for that day. I left the car full weight with about 50 miles to empty. The new IC, splitter and wheel spacers added to that weight about 50 pounds...but I certainly best my old full weight time of 12.06@115 with the 11.89@119. My car didn't run its fastest 330ft or even 1/8 but it for sure had a lot more power in the top end than ever before. Hard to say this is the best the car can do full weight.

So much fun watching you guys build your rides and tear apart misconceptions about the limits what this platform can do! Just crazy how far we have come along in just the last couple of years. Gen 4 is holding its own with Gen 5, not so long in the tooth after all 
Jordan make the switch to Redline. You won't regret it. I was a little confused when ordering as it doesn't have a weight on it. Shodded may have to correct me but I believe it has the same characteristics of the 75w140 and 75w90 so you just use it in both PTU and RDU. Its designed for drag racing
I bought some redline oil that said the weights but I sent it back it wasn't the right kind.
