As for controlling the transmission, you have a few options:
CANTCU - probably the easiest and most practical solution.
TurboLamik - more complex, but another option.
Full OEM integration - figuring out the coding so the factory DME can communicate with the ZF8. This is the cleanest solution, but also by far the hardest.
Personally, I'd go the CANTCU route.
The ZF8 **should**, in theory, be able to handle an 8,600 RPM redline. I believe the transmission itself is mechanically capable of around 9,000 RPM, but I haven't verified that myself, so I can't say for certain.
Although you might need to run an aftermarket ecu that is supported by those TCU's, because some if not all don't work with the MSS60
DCT swap would be easier by margins / cost effective.

Everything is a PIA, isn’t it, LOL!
The ecu/controller swap is what is throwing me.
Hopefully, there is someone out there who’s successfully done this already (for our cars).
Thanks for the info.
