You definitely lose SRM, and you probably also lose throttle rev limits (but I didn't test that), so you'd be on your own and then the hard fuel cut rev limits (normally there's a soft throttle rev limit before that). The throttle control is amazing though, it feels like an old school cable throttle again.

I couldn't keep it like that on my 7AT though, because the 7AT relies on SRM to shift smoothly. It's horribly and clunky with ETC off.
Interesting -- with ETC off will it still automatically down shift if you drop to about 1.5 K RPM or no?

If so, I may try it -- that's my ONE complaint about the 7AT. I'd like it to hold the gear even if the revs drop, unless it's approaching idle.
