Default Hate the slowmatic? why not go clutchless shiftronic?

yes it works on SC400

This is how it works.

The module has 6 buttons

1 2 3 4 3lock 4lock

start the car, put the car in drive
now if you want to change to 2nd gear you press 2, if you want to go 3rd gear you press 3, and if you want to go to 4th you press 4 and if you want to double downshift you press 2

3lock and 4 lock provides lockup at 3rd or 4th.

this module is $500 + $350 installation

optional line pressure module. Controls your transmission line pressure. You can go hard or soft. It works on a dial turn to max for tire-chirping shift and min to go back to granny shift
both shifttronic and line pressure module is $850 + $450 installation = $1300

turnaround time 1 day

this is an alternative for you guys who don't like the way the auto shifts but don't want to deal with manual clutching.

Yeah, they did a quality job on rebuilding the torque convertor. Not very happy.
