The ManuTronic function allows manual gear selection via the original equipment speed control (cruise control) switches. This feature allows up and down-shifting through all four gears at any time, using the Accel and Coast buttons located on the steering wheel. Initiation of this mode requires pressing the Coast and Off buttons in sequence, allowing it to coexist with the with the speed control system while being mutually exclusive of it.

What is as old as the hills ?

Baumann told me that my chip would need to be modified to make the engine run properly with the TCS kit. I just want to know if anyone has experience with this Mod on the Gen 1

that's great to hear. i have been calling Baumann for days but the person who handles t he TCS sales or whatever is never available, so I haven;'t been able to get a price or any details on how i would be able to install one in my gen 1. How much should I pay for the system?

Were also a Baumann dealer/distributor as well. Heres the pricing info, For 1997 and Earlier Transmissions, Catalog Number: TCS-1 $425.00
For 1998 and Later Transmissions, Catalog Number: TCS-2 $425.00
Its also worth it forking over the extra $$LOOT$$ for the harness he sells too.
