Transgo pressure regulator upgrade

Hi again all.
l apologies in advance if this seems like an unnecessary start of a new thread but it's a much more specific question than my previous 5hp24 preventative maintenance question. I thus thought it deserves a new thread, to keep things tidy.

Question
I am considering fitting the Transgo pressure regulator valve to a brand new lower front valve casting to then fit to my 2002 Audi S8 d2.

I know this upgrade has been done many times by owners of cars with the 5hp24 gearbox but I don't seem to be able to find any posts that testify to the long term durability of this upgrade.

Are there any users out there who have done moonship mileage over a good number of years with this valve fitted? I am trying to establish it's longevity.

Thanks Frank

I'd contact ocli, out in LVNV, about that.
I'm sure they have plenty of experience with that.

"ocli, out in LVNV" ? ... Can you elaborate? ... Doesn't even get a google hit.

Maybe you mean OCLES in Reno? Used to post here, maybe no longer in operation. I recall they were into the reamed-out and oversized valve replacement for the used transmissions they sold.
