Reprogramming the transmission shift points

[VaiFan]

Has anyone here toyed with the idea of getting higher shift points and quicker shifts from this tranny (primarily in manual mode)?
I would be very interested in this if anyone finds out where and how?
thanks

It appears to be programmable, via the TCM...transmission control module

In the search function enter : shift control solenoid

Too much info to post here except:

TCM is activated by power supply. Signals from several sensors, such as ATFS and APS, is inputted to TCM. Comparing inputted siganals with control LOGIC saved at micro controller and EEPROM, TCM controlls Transmission as actuating solenoids . To guarantee accurate control, TCM performs SELF TEST, DIAGNOSIS of several sensors and actuators. And if serious trouble which affects vehicle performance occurrs, TCM sets DTCs. At certain cases, TCM inhibites shifting in order to prevent dangerous situation due to incorrect control.
