I wonder if a product like this will turn the market around, so instead of everyone doing a manual swap, people will start to do an automatic swap. I was debating putting a 5 speed in, but I think it'll be auto for a very long time. I'd like to see what the paddle looks like. Any way to take pics!?

Re: DSMStyle Exclusive Review: TCUgo

Once people start hearing about the Auto DSM that went mid-low 10's on a stock block/stock auto (restalled, TCugo, cooler) with only 550 whp, autos will become more popular. 1.4 60' times rule.

Re: DSMStyle Exclusive Review: TCUgo

Just ordered my TCUGO unit today, as one just became available fresh off from "Hugos assembly line".

LSE should get a chance to check it out when they crack open the tranny next month.

Expect another full TCUGO review, but then on a built up tranny with a IPT Stall converter.

Re: DSMStyle Exclusive Review: TCUgo

Curious about the push buttons how do they look and where did you mount them?

Are you going to get the paddle option when it comes available?

Down the line I may get the paddles, Hugo said they will be under $100.00.
