Not sure if they still make TriMode TCU? Had one since 1993, for 15 years it has stayed in same position.

Any chance you could pull the cover off and take some good high res photos of that TCU when you get it back. I'd love to see what they do, might be able to hack the TCU and then we could have a "NICO TCU" to go along with the NICO ECU's! I've been deep into the ECU's for a while now and am dying to crack that TCU.
