Ford Auto box reprofile

Yanbanshee · 15th October 2009, 10:38

Does anyone know of a specialist who can reprofile the autobox ecu?

I think the original settings are biased towards a sporting mode, which for the RV8 seems rather unnecessary.

This place has been recomended on the dark side for re-mapping the ZT V8.

Might be worth giving them a call.

Never heard of Gearbox remaps!

Quite common amongst our American cousins with auto-box mustangs. I have seen it as options on the likes of the Diablo reprogramer for the ECU

My understanding is that Scooter doesn't charge the R75's because the auto would need remapped, and it's either too difficult/expensive or something?

Here is the link to the DiabloSport Predator Flash tuner
http://tunertools.com/proddetail.asp?prod=DS-U7146
It lists these points :-
Re-Calibrate Speedometer for gear and tyre size changes
WOT Shift Pressure
Part throttle shift firmness
RPM shift points
Torque Modulation for better shift feel

There are also diffrent ones from SCT

But these are for the American cars not the MG-Rover with the Roush tune.
