Does anyone understand the Porsche tiptronic transmission?
Specifically, does it need a special ECU and/or does it have its own? Does it even need a computer? Looking to use it for a rear engined Subaru project. Any super experts on these transaxle out there to get one custom built for this? Really looking for an automatic, no flames. |

A PDK controller is coming. I am building a 4.1L 993 engine that it will be coupled to, and fitted into a Beck 904 in the spring, for its initial testing.
Tip trannys are heavy as hell, but they are bomb proof. The size alone makes them not very viable for any older retrofit. |

Darn prices on tiptronics went up already. |
