(Short shift mod also on the cards ) Linkage adjusted and new plastic bracket fitted as mine had shat itself, hence the intermittent 1st gear.

Wubbadad78 1 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 I recently had my ECU re-flashed with UNITRONIC software and honestly its friggin amazing! I highly recommend it to anyone especially if you are in the US. Got rid of the low end hesitation(lag) that plagues them, raised the redline to 7200, and no speed governor! smoooooth acceleration all the way to redline. Its like a new engine. GET IT!
