[QUOTE="SmokinCAT, post: 7070800, member: 51378"]My biggest question is why didn’t they give you a printed readout of the dyno run? How an engine is ran on a dyno has nothing to do with everyday use, direct is used for consistency as well as being the most direct route for power through the transmission. Your transmission will give you signs that it doesn’t want anymore, when your engine pulls down under a hard pull and you hear the bearings rattle it is time to down shift and get away from peak torque. Temperature is another tell tale sign, if it’s running hot then yes a cooler would be ideal.[/QUOTE]
