Houston Hayden Has Landed

The above picture show the location of the newly installed Hayden 676 on my Isis. I had decided to installed this after the car feel so sluggish climbing Genting Sempah during my trip to the east coast. Anyway, the ATF temperature shoot to above 110 and I feel there should be something I can do about it.

This is the tapping point for the Hayden ATF Cooler, notice the new piping at the bottom of the it with covered plastic cover.

Another view of the tapping point.

The cooling coil are install on the front of the air cond condenser for best heat transfer. The other benefits are the cooling coil can be cool during the air-cond fan operational during idling.

How much it cost for the parts and installation ? Approx 1k
Where I did it ? Vision Auto/ Toms Racing (Sunway branch)
Effect after installing it ? A drop in ATF temperature. After a day of testing, the ATF temperature drop approximate 10% and this lead to better response and smoother gear change.
Worth the money spent ? It depends, let me test it on another Genting Sempah or Genting Highland run then I will tell you about it.

Remember there are some fake Hayden in the market and just a bit cautious when buying one. Anyway, just remember to regulary change your ATF fluid to protect your gearbox and installed an after market ATF meter to monitor it.
