Default Transmission pressure mod 2009 6 speed

I am looking to purchase a used 2009 SC430 now, mileage at about 70km. I am wondering if the transmission pressure mod is available for the 6 speed transmission as most of the most are done on the 5 speed transmission models. I will be flushing the transmission oil once I purchase the car, besides the usual engine oil and differential oil, basically a full service. Since I am going to change the transmission oil, I might as well look at modding transmission pressure too. If this mod is not available on the 6 speed transmission, I will not open the pan.

it is my understanding this may not work with the 2006-2010. Also, make sure you understand how to Drain and refill these transmissions. They are different from the conventional style 2002-2005.

I will be sending to my usual workshop to drain and refill the transmission oil. I don't have a jack to perform this myself. From your reply, I can't mod on the 6 speed auto transmission. In that case, I will not open the pan to look for it. Thanks.
