Yes I was going to post this later after I had more time with car. Got the v.23 tranny upgrade yesterday. I feel about a 50% improvement in response at this point. Agree more aggressive driving is necessary for adaptive gear to help with the change.
Gear choices are better, but really havn't driven it enough yet to tell. And yes I would prefer a Dinan upgrade, but again, they are not ready. My SA, who I drive open wheel cars with, so he knows, rec. throttle body first.
Also exhaust change out to follow. They had one a the stlr and it is a hot car. FWIW.
