No, I was comparing my 18 gt with a supercharger with the same 20" rear tires and weight. Didn't know the dct was hindered like they are describing. Once they learn the trans, its gonna be insanely quick.
Yeah the DCT is what's holding this car back. They should have transmission tuning available soon and then we can figure out what breaks on the DCT first so it can get upgraded to support the extra power. Right now all these shops are dancing around the DCT with big HP numbers but no ability to use all the power.
Rumor has it the DCT has been slipping a little bit already with even modest increase in power...
Where have you seen that? I've been watching this car like a hawk and have seen nothing so far regarding the DCT slipping.
Yes it should be trapping more but he stated why on FB I'll post it for those who don't have FB or have not seen his comments.
I've been sworn to secrecy for now.
I'm not surprised if it is slipping. I was hoping it would be alot stronger than we all thought but maybe trans tuning will help hold it together once available.
That was the hope from 'said' person- at this point the question is what the initial clutch pressure is at and if it can be increased/manipulated- almost like the GR6 in the GTR.
Clutch replacements in DCT's isn't that uncommon. They've been doing this in the GTR and Lambo world for a while now. It's just going to take a bit to get the upgraded parts made.
Ive already stated that something is holding these cars back. They are not running as fast as the HP should do.
