    the biggest killer of trannys is debris in the fluid along with a cooler i would add a second aux filter the more fluid you have the cooler it will be as well

    Considering that it is a closed system, and it has a filter, this is a misnomer. Heat is the biggest killer of transmissions. Look at the chart of transmission fluid life expectancy at various temps:
