As stated by Jeremy above.. I have messed with them a lot and have several local and non-local cars running modded EPROM TCUs, including Jason's 9 second street tire Auto in NC. The shift maps, shift pressures, etc, can be messed with by modifying the code and tables in the EPROM. Surprisingly it's a 256, double the size of a ECU chip, but it uses the same 28 pin configuration, thus the same size sockets and chips will work. It is awesome for driveability, if you don't want to manually shift all the time. And it's nice to go down the track without having to worry about shifting.
