EVOMS has a TCU (transmission control unit) upgrade available. Essentially, the TCU upgrade allows the transmission to shift at a higher rpm (7000), increases the tq limits, and significantly decreases up and down shifting times.

This upgrade is done electronically, in the TCU itself.

It actually helps modded cars to shift gear before hitting the rev limiter. I'm in a search for a broken/used 997 turbo tiptronic gearbox to send it over to MKB. Does anyone knows where i can get one in Europe?
