auto gearbox thought

Re: auto gearbox thought
Apart from the obvious one of cost my thoughts are,
1. Space
2. Final drives
3. Control compatibility
4. Bell housing and torque converter
All things are possible though if you can throw enough time and money at it

Re: auto gearbox thought
Never mind the remapping because the ECU and box computers won't understand each other.
Probably easier to just buy an E70 with one fitted.
But as above, anything is possible if you pay enough.....
.....and out of interest, why? Certainly a challenge for you so you must have a good reason?

Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.
