    6R80 Swap Coming?!?!

    After doing about an hour of research on the matter it seems that Performance Automatic is close to completing a stand alone controller for the 6R to be used .

    It seems the 03-04 cobra guys and most 4r70 users have generated enough interest to where they are working on a solution.

    Summit has a kit available on the site but it won't ship till 10/26/15.

    maybe 96gt4.6 can chime in on any research on this

    I also believe Baumann is also working on this also. Seems like they would have huge market for these swaps!!! (see post #68 on pg 5)

    Cool!!!
    hope it's more cost effective than the TCI 6 speed w/paddle shifters we discussed last January

    5600.00 for their stand alone

    Would be nice to use our stock computer to run the stock 4.6 engine , then run the f150 trans and ecu. Fool the 6 speed trans computer into thinking it's running the 4.6 with the right inputs And like magic it's running like a dream

    Love the 6 speed auto, with a tune it's a blast

    I think that cost is for the transmission and the controller..... More research happening right meow

    For $5600, no way! That's most of the cost to do a Coyote swap in the first place.

    A 4R100 kit from BTS costs about $6k, includes PCS controller and converter. Makes the 6R80 seem reasonable considering the 4R100 weight and ground clearance.

    $1800 and it was worse than when he started!

    I would wait for the Baumann to have the controller and piece the 6R680 trans yourself....
    I see stock 6R680 trans going 950s easily.

    From the research I've done on the issue that price will include a brand new 6R80 and the controller

    So after a email to PA (Performance Automatic). The the stand alone controller should be ready for release in January.

    They added me to their contact list when the controller finally hits the market!

    Please let us know when you are updated on it, been following on/off on SVTP of someone finally making a controller for that damn trans. 4l80e would be nice but the 6r80 are stout stock and its a 6 speed.
