Quick reply to all:
If the Hunter DI is installed it should make no difference to ANYTHING other than the dash display, it's purely cosmetic, but still a handy mod.
The slabs ECU could be "remapped" to fix this without the Hunter DI and that would change how the entire drivetrain behaved.
I.E. engine, torque converter, auto shift.
twr7cx:
The TCU can be mapped to stay in any gear until whatever speed you want... Or many many other possibilities!
And yes, you can tell what gear you are in by the solenoids settings in the D2 auto box section of the nanocom... But you'll have to calculate it yourself.

When I installed my Hunter DI Speedo corrector I interrupted the PWM speed signal right at the SLABS unit, and not at the instrument pack.
My naive expectation was / is that connecting there would mean that the corrected signal would continue to be shared to ALL the devices that require a speed signal input.

Talking to my mechanic son just now and he reckons that the later lockup speed I experience is likely related to the increased load that the TCU sees now that I’m running non standard tyres.

Hey Shack
Is it possible to modify the torque setting that puts Mario and Stan on or is this controlled via the ECU?

I'm not aware of any "torque setting" at this stage, but there could be one.
However, don't forget that the TCU can't actually work out what the torque is, it gets sent a signal over the canbus of ESTIMATED torque, and adapts itself to that.
What is probably happening is a P0722 fault, have you seen that?
That happens when the torque converter is slipping more than what the TCU tune specifies as acceptable.
