Just got off the phone with the fellow at German Transaxle. I got
pricing, lead time, etc., info about the Peloquin torque biasing
differential swap. While I was at it, I inquired about modifications to
make the auto transmission upshift later when accelerating.

Though he did mention that they could modify the governor, he wasn't
real enthusiastic about it, citing reliability issues ("burn it up" was
a phrase he used). Instead, he said to tighten the accelerator cable.

I got confused.

"There's the kickdown," he said, "and the accelerator cable."

I explained that I can't use the kickdown because of this fused right
ankle.

"You can still tighten the cable," he said. "The manual is just a
guideline, if the cable is tighter, the transmission will shift later."

Uh, okay. He's a transmission guy and I'm just a car owner, so I told
him that I'd have my mechanic look into it.

But does this makes sense?
