However, the upshifts were sooo sloooow in W that it negated any possible benefit from the control. I had to hit the shifter way early to avoid the limiter. The lag was such that I ended up shifting much to early to avoid the limiter. It never worked well enough to be of benefit on the road course or 1/4 mile. I still have that TCU in the closet (Evotech), epoxied shut). When I swapped out my ring and pinion for a 3:27, I purchased a tuned TCU from Rudy. (many years ago)) I never could tell any difference from a stock TCU.
If I bring my car out of retirement I'd most likely want to run 1/2 mile events or do some drag racing. Nitrous, perhaps. I'd want higher shift points and lightning upshifts. This car is my toy, not a daily driver. I dynoed my car with the Evotech TCU and ran it out close to 6300 rpm years ago and the power is still climbing at a 45º angle. Lots of power up there...lots.
Obviously I'm toying with the idea of returning to the racing scene and Eurocharged is no longer a tuning option and my TCU has me yawning. Therefore my interest in your tuning and project. I'm subscribed.
