Sorry, I dont have a lot more to help you all out with this, I was disappointed to see the EURO without cupping, very disappointed, It was on my list of yet another further enhancement, I had a TC without hookup (cupping), I now have one with hookup and I can say I will NEVER go back to one without it. You just need to get into a vehicle with it and you very quickly realise the benefit.
I selected the updated 2009 HEMI TC, it works, no shudder and pulls very nicely and all transmission temps dropped significantly (thats important for a number of reasons), and the fuel consumption improved, and engine rpms down accross the board. Ive been down this road and I know what is working. And the price was right.
Its simple, trans cooler, transgo and HEMI type TC is what I can speak for that works for me. Like the last jeep tech that drove my kj said "Christ, this thing drives like the Merc (grand cherokee) was is reference point. One particular further comment from him that I thought was worth noting is that he said that he never thought he would see a kj CRD without engine flaring.
Good luck with your solution search, I know and understand how annoying and frustrating it can be to find it.
I would like to one day try something like GDE simply to sort out injector timing and what appears to be low down over fuelling/under boost but shipping my ECU overseas is not an option for my daily drive requirements at this stage.
I have the lid off a spare TCM at the moment, a few bits of hardware arriving this week too, now what do we have in here amongst all this goop thats useful.......
