But hey, they made it faster so that means it's "better"

Overall it's a W, and now these cars modded will be holding some heavy power on a STOCK transmission. I'd really like to hear your reasoning. I love the DCT, just excited to see the potential now of this S58 motor with a trans that can hold 🤞🏼

not everyone agrees with the 8at being a downgrade in tech, including prior f82 owners, fwiw.
