What you got for a front mount-a pipeclenaer?It won't make any noticeable difference to inlet temps but a lot of difference to the ps fluid if you remove it.

Some peopel are fitting bigger coolers as ps fluid can overheat on track.

Have removed mine and to be honest it hasn't made much difference to the Fluid Temp if any, i was speaking to a couple of tuners who told me that the cooler was added due to the temperatures experenced in the far east and unless we have a dramatic temp increase in the UK...it is not that necessary. Mind you they could be wrony :?

i removed mine aswell when i installed my large spearco core.
Im not missing it at all.

A bit of pipe as a cooler is a bit of a joke anyhow if you really want to cool the ps fluid get a small motorbike oil cooler or something.
