Do you calibrate TCU or can I also calibrate the new TCU program with
XHP-Ray Ban 81 (Flash program for the TCU)

Propulsive Dynamics, LLC is happy to announce that we are now offering a complete drop-in solution for the 6HP21/19 transmissions that are currently found in N54/N55 powered vehicles. It is preferred that the customer send in their stock unit for rebuild, however, sending a salvaged donor unit is also possible. It is of note that vehicle models 2009 and up could need a ECS module reset via NCS Expert/WinKFP to reactivate the paddle shifters after install.
We also strongly advise that the end user utilize an ATF cooler to aide in heat management of the system that uses true AN fittings. The use of AN fittings is important due the increases in ATF pump pressure and volumetric flow-rate.
The fully built transmissions offered by Propulsive Dynamics feature the following…
- Upgraded G3 Friction Material frictions
- Upgraded Kolene steels
- Increased clutch plate counts throughout
- Upgraded Race Bushings throughout
- Complete Overhaul Kit by ZF
- Fully rebuilt and upgraded valve-body
- Fully rebuilt and upgraded torque converter (
stock stall, currently)
- Each finished unit is fully calibrated on a loaded transmission dyno cell
- Each unit is shipped with a calibration data packet which also includes the adaptation procedure
Propulsive Dynamics, LLC has formed an exclusive partnership with European Transmissions. They will be performing the rebuilds and dyno calibration of all of our units. They are a BMW certified transmission refurbishment facility for BMW USA.
The calibration procedure includes increasing line pressures in each clutch drum, increased flow through the ATF pump, adjustments to slip durations to compensate for the increased friction coefficient and adjustments to the adaptation parameters themselves in order for the system to learn within its new boundaries. We are rating the performance increase at ~30% over the known capacity limit of the stock configuration with increased spectrum of usage and margin of safety.
