If you find someone that can do this they will have a queue down the road.

My QP S was zf and did blip a little and was much more noticeable with sports cats and x pipe. Not on the level of the Strad though.

You need mc shift or stradale. Having had a normal auto it’s impossible to replicate, even with loud exhausts

The 2012-13 Granturismo S could be optioned with the 'MC Autoshift' software, before they went to the GT Sport, so that might be your best bet. But never heard of it done, and I suspect the TCM might be different on the earlier car, it will be on the Sport for sure.

It worked on my diesel BMW though. I've contacted the guy who did that for me with the ZF8 box and see what he says. If its possible, ill get it done and see if im adding a gearbox to my list of death issues ;)

If he can make my sh*t merc box change quicker I would cross his palm with much silver. It is shocking and has latest software etc.

I think the tcm in the gearbox is different for 2/3 model years. Where as the later are more responsive. Best bet would be to retrofit a later model auto box. But seems a steep price for something small.

And no idea if the ECU's would play nicely

So.... the award to the guess the right answer goes to.......... (you decide)

In a nutshell, ZF have sealed the 6 speed boxes, so only they can make this modification. Sources of 3 so far. All advertise ZF box remapping
