Its totally open, it never actually ended up going into production. The company that made the transmission controller that was used in Sebs car for R&D lead us on for a very long time but ultimately never did produce any more TCMs and has pretty much fallen off the face of the earth.

This means that, for the foreseeable future, it is not possible to provide any type of assistance or support for wiring and controlling the transmission. I can produce and sell the parts that allow for a physical bolt-in solution for the transmission. But wiring and controlling that transmission and shifter solutions etc, will all be dependent on the individual installer, who will have to use one of the other standalone TCMs available for these transmissions. This will take a lot of research on the matter, which is honestly going to be quite a bit out of the scope for 90% of DIYers. There is a whole lot to have to learn about to do it, and its a real shame for any human to invest that sort of time into it learning it and figuring it all out, to merely do it just once.

The hours that go into it will also make it unviable for most customers who would consider having a shop figure it all out for them, unless such shop was willing to invest their own time for the sake of learning it and supporting it. But if someone was going to be paying hourly rate for a shop to learn it from scratch and do it, we are talking about probably 10K + in time.

So for these reasons, I have sorta let it sit on the backburner not really sure if its worth producing a batch of them or not.
