Great comment about the mechatronic, for the ZF this is still undiscovered territory to my knowledge,but do you know if there are shops that can reprogramm the DKG mechatronic?

I was looking to ask RENNtech if they would be able to do it after doing the SSP clutch pack upgrade on my car. If anyone can do it it would be them. That will be some time down the road after turbo upgrade

I'm curious, when are your DCTs slipping? Are they not able to hold a gear and slip? Do they slip whrn you shift? Is it when you launch the car? Or is it when you hit the kickdown pedal?
Mine has always slipped when accidentally hitting the kickdown, even stock. I hate that stupid thing, seems retarded that the BMW engineers deaignes it to auto downshift when in manual mode, esoecially when it revs the car past the turbos' efficiency. |

Well, so far I've got 20 passes at the drag strip under my belt, and I've done more WOT pulls than I can count. I haven't experienced any slipping yet. I only have 7,500 miles on the car so far, but I'll try to update this on occasion.

I put out 419whp and 457wtq on a DynoJet. same bolt-ons as you no meth and no race gas on Cobb Protune aswell. Thinking about doing R&B Turbos but not sure if my DCT will handle it. what you think?

Only one way to find out do the upgrade, the worse case scenario is to lower boost if you find you reach the DCT stock limit on this car

BuraQ, have you consider doing upgrade turbo? and which? I would do the single turbo but I just want something alittle faster than now. Not too much not too little ya feel me? Thinking of R&B turbos. Would I need anything to go with this?

If you do go with upgraded turbos, please keep us informed and up to date on how it goes! I'm curious how the transmission will handle it.

I will be doing a FBO/RB install end of november. Will see how the DCT will hold.
What I actually already noticed is that driving in sport+DCT+DS is the best for the gearbox as it shifts quite agresive with limited slipping. I think I will buy a upgraded clutchpack next year when required. Some control on the mechatronic would be very beneficial for adjusting to higher torque specs.

I might have found somebody who can program the mechatronic. More news in 2 weeks. I do not have more info for now.

The DME reports to the DCT values that calculate how much pressure to apply to the clutches to avoid slippage from "increased HP" ie, boost, target, throttle position etc. This will be problematic for piggyback users ie clutch slippage should be more expected on such tuning platform If your DME "thinks" the turbos are producing only 12 PSI the DCT calculates that into an aproximate HP value and then ups the bar pressure to 10 when in fact you are running more PSI and more HP, which causes the clutches to slip then leading to more heat which will lead to more slip. Also brake Boosting is harmful to your DCT and will cause slippage if used too many times especially with a piggyback setup on the DCT 335iS exclusively FYI, I am nearing 200+ launches using LC and my DCT is still STRONG, no slippage whatsoever |

What I do know is that for example the addaption proces, (you can force this by resetting your gearbox) can actualy harm your internals, because at that moment all the statsistics within the box are also wiped. These figures do also incorporate the wear of the internals. The box needs to "figure out" again how the wear was. These stats get generated only when the box is within normal operational temps and so it is very important to carefully run the car after an adaption reset. If this is 1 on 1 applicable to a DKG I can not confirm, but that the DKG has a similair kind of logic I'm pretty sure about.

Great info guys, keep it comin!
Can't wait to hear back with updates on the mechatronic tuning and upgraded turbo setups. BuraQ, I see you broke into the 11's!!!!! Congrats dude!!!!!! Update: I'm at 11,000 miles now, still going strong on my DCT, no slipping. There is a slight delay in power delivery on WOT, but Jake@PTF had told me previously that it is a known thing with the Cobb tune and is probably saving my clutches. I think I remember him saying it can be removed, but I don't wanna risk the stress.
