OK CORRECTION!!! It appears that my A10 uses ONLY the parallel cooler and DOES not have a line that goes to the radiator. This is more efficient since the AT line doesnt have to go thru a radiator that is being pre-heated by hot water.
The SAFE temp levels for BOTH AT Fluid and Water are about the same or around 220 degrees. The HIGHEST I have since water temp even on a VERY HOT track day is around 212 degrees and that is PRIOR to me installing my hood vents. ON day to day driving, the hood vents appear to make about a 5 degree REDUCTION in water temps.
The hottest I have seen though with tranny temps is around 250 degrees and that SPECIFICALLY is the reason for the change to the ZL1 tranny cooler.
I will post up the MAX temps that I see on both after this weekends blazing hot SCCA Time trials on Saturday.
