Hoping to snag up a used transmission, or new, that has the pump integrated. I have a 2016 tech pack and I am tracking it enough that I want the safety of the coolers. Let me know if you have anything! Need something in decent shape without a ton of mileage.
Looking for 2017+ Transmission with Pump
EASTAMPTN Township, New Jersey
$2,000 USD
Sorry I don’t have a spare one to offer, 🙃, just curious what you meant by “pump integrated”? Vs what? I”m familiar with STi transmissions, earlier versions had a pump that helped lubricate the gears, newer ones had cost saving measure of having an oil scraper but not as effective.

TLDR: 2015/2016 Tech pack GT350's do not include the transmission cooler and diff cooler. Transmission cooler pump is integrated into the transmission instead of a separate external pump.
So in 2015/2016 Tech pack models Ford, with their infinite wisdom, were trying to make more distinctions between Tech pack and Track pack and they did not include the transmission cooler or differential cooler in the Tech pack. From MY2017 both packs got the coolers because it turns out that they need them to be tracked effectively and got sued for it
Sass aside, the tech pack is fine on the street or doing autocross, but I am going to be doing hopefully quite a few track days next year as well as autocross so I want the transmission with the pump, and I am going to put the diff cooler on. FMPP had the transmission for 2k for awhile but i didnt jump on it while I had the chance and they discontinued that with no intentions of selling them for that price again. They also cancelled their rear diff cooler upgrade kit too.
My options are, buy a 5k transmission and about another couple hundred in parts for the actual tranny cooler or build my own transmission cooler (which I will probably do) using the transmission fluid fill and drain ports and an electric pump. Then ofcourse adding the diff cooler. Diff cooler isn't as necessary, but would be nice to have as piece of mind.
Appreciate the edumacation😀. I’m also hoping to finally get on a track with a vehicle…just got mine in August. My previous Subaru adventure, well, years, $$$ and heartache…never made it. Best of luck!!!TLDR: 2015/2016 Tech pack GT350's do not include the transmission cooler and diff cooler.
