Hi Trevor!

We know that the Euro and JDM TCUs are not the identical because various people have tried to fit JDM boxes to his Euro cars and vice-versa. There are various problems with regard to speed sensor #2. Plus, of course, the the Euro car goes into "economy mode" on the same signal that the JDM car uses for "power mode".

I think it is just a small difference in the software. If I can get a download of a UK TCU then I'll compare the two and we'll know for sure.

Regards, Phil.
