Not that I'm aware. (I own one)

 

Only issues are with speed delimiting. There is no satisfactory way to do it on the VVTi Tip - the problem is it'll attempt to kick down a gear if you full throttle over 130mph... consider it doing that at 150+ and it's not good for the box.

 

You shouldn't be doing those speeds anyway except on a track, but if you're tracking it you're better off with a 6spd.
