Stillen tranny cooler?

In the time that I have been here, I have yet to see a thread about the Stillen tranny cooler. Maybe because no one is stupid enough to think about getting it? or because it is not a significant add-on?
But anyways, I was wondering if this WOULD BE a beneficial mod to a 5spd tranny, and if so then would it hold the tranny back from getting to operating temperatures? Also, would it help in "increasing the life-span" of the tranny as well? And my apologizes if this was a thread a while back ago.

Cheap insurance.

You could find a B&M or Summit for cheaper.

I was wondering about one too. Somebody mention buying one at AutoZone for much cheaper and it will do the job just as well

Are U towing something? Autocross? Is the engine running hot? Do you have a tranny oil gauge showing 200F+ temp? Then maybe. Otherwise, I would just put fresh tranny oil every two years or when it does not have that fresh oil smell.
