...........As I understand it, the AGS remap does not make you shift faster. What it does is to raise the torque limit on your transmission from the current 700Nm to 1000Nm. This is probably not needed for many. In my case I am past the torque limit and frequently go into limp mode wit hard lanches.

I'm dying for the engine cover and tubes too... and the black paddles if they get made.

I'm so easy... what a *****!

Unfortunately, the short answer is that you have to send the EGS unit to me if you want to get it done.

Its OK Victor...I will do it here when Oliver comes next time...

We are working on a complete system, along with tranny reinforcements, better than what MKB is offering since MKB just changes one clutch pack, instead of all three.

And Michael should see his EGS/Speedshift next month. Sorry for the wait guys. If you have any questions, feel free to call me to discuss about the EGS/Speedshift.

belt wrap didnt work with evotech pully according to adam. so i am gonna wait untill vic can try it out before i try to install it again.

ya just the clutch packs! speed shift has a button that you can turn on and off. so i only want to turn it on when racing or the track. so hopefully it will last a long time if not i just replace.

ill pm you my secret mod list! hehe.

I can do transmission reinforcements locally. It is not a rocket science.
