you're right, his manual probably shifts itself, or maybe he's the only person that's retrofitted a DCT into an 08 335

makes total sense, great question

It shifts way cleaner with the cobb, with the jb4 was jerky and a slow...
and the cobb will only let me leave at 2500rpm, the jb4 let me leave at 2800-3200rpm or higher but the car doesn't like that lol

Transmission TCU is reading the realistic values from the DME on a flash only tune like Cobb

COBB makes no adjustments to the gearing/trans programming or anything else. Chances are if everything feels smoother it's a combination of the DME seeing proper TQ values and the tune.

Wrong, over on German Boost a Russian owner has already swapped an entire DCT into his factory equipped 6AT, in addition to an M3 body conversion & Stage 2 turbos. And if the 6AT flatline cannot be cured, expect it to become a lot more common modification as more people go high power with big Single/Twin Turbo setups.

Ok this makes sense, it's like drive a different car, it's so smooth.
