cold air intakes dont really have big power gains so it is not going to put any additional strains on your engine. as far as the tranny cooler goes...it helps prolong the life of the tranny so its a really good investment. the 6 wagons comes stock with a tranny cooler. they are simple to install. go to mazda6tech.com for really good instructions. none of these mods can void your warranty unless you drive your 6 into deep water and hydrolock your engine....then yeah that would void it....but then again it would probably hydrolock with the stock airbox too.

one such manufacturer is Autometer Gauge. just do a little search for a tranny gauge on the internet. sure you'd find a good selection of them through doing so. i think the Autometer Gauge is around $40 or so.
