ECU tune Transmission control unit?

OK,
I have one LAN TCU "chip" in a mostly stock SVX, and everybody who drives it loves it...
And I have another LAN, TCU "chip" in my Claret that I don't let anybody drive, (except Harry, and Jerry, lately, but you know that I'd let YT and Ben, or Dave, or Rufus, or Chi'ke, or even Bill, if he really existed, but I digress)
Anyhoo, in both cars the chip kicks @$$, and you should all buy one!

How's the valve body in the claret treating you?

Actually it's been great!
Jerry (subi-crosser) will be beating it at the Cumberland Autocross this Sunday.

Good to hear. I suspect he'll be all grins. Maybe he'll come tell us about it.

Well, He liked it!
Jerry ran my Claret yesterday, in the second heat,
(He usually preferrs the fourth)
and said there was a HUGE improvement in the transmission,
the shifts were much faster, and it stayed in first and second longer.
I still do not have my SC pulley carved,
And I still have the stock cams in it.
But the thing that limited Jerry yesterday was the lack of slicks.
I have some new 245/45/17 Dunlop 5000 Sports on it, but He was at the limit of traction, a lot.
I am hoping to "find" some 17 X 8 or bigger wheels for cheap to remount the slicks on, and install the cams, and finally replace the SC pulley.
There is nothing like another 150 hp, along with some traction!

Ok, so has anyone seen their AT OIL TEMP light come on?

Due to my recent transmission diagnostics I performed alot of stall testing, and I came across a mystery. If the fluid is above about 200, the light won't come on during the bulb check if you restart. I've got a sensor in my pan and it was reading about 219 at one point, and yet no light. My gauge could be off though. hmm.

During development I did. I set it to several different temperatures below the 176F that my transmission runs and verified the formula to calculate temp was correct by monitoring the atf temp reported by the tcu to the select monitor and recording the reported temp when the atf overtemp warning light came on.

Thanks for putting Jerry on the Phone yesterday. It's always nice to hear from a race driver thrilled with my products.

We can even kick it up a notch further. We can make ROMs specific for different race events. One option is to have a different ROM customized for each type of racing you do and just switch ROMs before the race. The other option is we can fit two versions of firmware onto the ROM and switch between them like we do with the ECUs. In the latter case you will need to use the ECUtune multi-tune adaptor I sell to the Skyline, Z, and Honda guys.
