Auto TCUs are not tuned by anyone. Even kido tuning who claims to have all tcus mapped out etc etc won't bother tuning a TCU for a stock car.
As hardware bob said the transmission will liven up with a proper ECU tune, but it is in no way due to tuning of TCUs. The gearbox just likes a smoother engine tune. Even then if you want the best performance you'll need to put it into gear yourself.
Comparing your experience as a passenger and as a driver doesn't work. My car scares the shite out of me when driven by my tuner or engine builder (me as a passenger). When I'm behind the wheel it's a more controlled feeling, even getting pushed into the seat won't impress you as much.

Having said that, a tune will unlock great drive-ability and enhance the driving experience. Furthermore, the engine does have character (not sure if you care or not) and when mated to a nice exhaust, it sounds great.
If the budget permits, definitely consider a GT with the turbo. Maybe that'll give the performance edge you desire.

Please dont tell me what I am or am not doing. Your wrong like usual.
Tuned a TCU only for a car I dont tune purely to lift the rev limit to 7200rpm before it changes as the engine has big cams in an MY10 2.5. Its running Cobb plus Tactrix... TCU tuned via Tactrix
I tune the TCU computer in the early 04 to 05 cars purely as they drive better with even with the 06 TCU program loaded. Last 12 months has seen me tuning the actual TCU so it improves gearshifts on even a stock car.

Must be why I see MY DBW being used in other tuners work... like a value of 343 in the top right colum of the S# map(quite a unique value) Odd that it was my trademark being defaced to change the value up from 303. Atleast it made it easy to improve upon
DBW RT does increase line pressure. Ever wonder why a stock MY09+ LGT has a value of up to 390 yet the engine tune is capped at 350 in a per gear limiter table? Ever tested just raising the final column on a H6 auto to increase line pressure?
On my phone since you would know I am away tuning... phone keyboard is lame as it learns from all language used as common words from texts including grammar and spelling mistakes.
