Nothing you do will ever change the capacity of the vehicle from the factory. Those ratings are fixed. No brochure or piece of paper will change if you add a transmission cooler.
However, modifying the vehicle does increase the vehicles capability. Factory capacity and vehicle capability Are two different things ;)
How about filling us in on some more details?
My minivan has a MASSIVE transmission cooler... like 4 x the size of the cooler on my F150 rated to tow 8,000 lbs. So you may not need a transmission cooler.
Thanks!
