Well my shift bog has gone with this TCU 😁😁

Shifts are noticably better and firmer sadly due to traffic I've not had chance to give it some pain as of yet.

Shifts hard and drives good with mine. Only negative so far is the TC lockup is being a little funky. Like trying to stay locked up too long coming to a stop, and locking up too late when leaving from a stop. Hopefully it'll clear up over time.

TCU, ECU or the Sneaky gas pedal reset trick?

Just wanted to give Zerocat101 a quick "thank you" and shout out. I received the TCU in a very timely manner. I just installed it today, and it is a marked improvement overall. The transition between gears feels quicker, crisper, and more direct. Predictability is improved as well. It lends itself to a more connected feel to the car, if that makes sense. Two thumbs up. Thanks Zerocat!

Zerocat - this TCU tune also works for a SL55 / R230 (2004) with the 722.6 trans yes? Car is 100% stock. Assume its plug and play just like on the E55 / W211's ??? Seems pretty awesome improvement with the trans even on a stock car.

Also when ordering for a SL55 / R230 (2004) should I order the gearing option as 2.82 which is what i "think' my car has yes (i'm all stock)

Is it best to go with the Stock WOT shift point if my car is fully stock or one of the other options 6700/6800/6900? I'm gonna order one of these if you can help me nail down those Q's thanks very much

Thx
