N55 DCT Launch Control Issue

[Dax]

quick questions for modded and un modded DCT owners. With DTC activated for launch control, does the car cut power at all? I find that in sometimes the car will bog slightly when changing from 1st to 2nd even when DTC is activated. (I am stock for now)

I find if you are just pulling off it is ok but when I corner fast it cuts off but it does allow the car to slide more than normal.

I have tested it in the rain modded even with slicks to me it's still safe I tested it full throttle and you are still travelling fairly straight but not quick cos it cuts power. Totally off with Triangle on then you on your own to the nearest scrapyard unless u Ken Block.

Thanks guys, for the modded gents do you turn off the the DTC completely or do you leave it in DTC on, I am talking for straight line drags here, thanks.

@Dean what sort of power is your car making?
Reason i am asking is that i would like to know how the gearbox had been holding up. Its nice to know how these boxes hold up.
I intend on keeping my car, just always worried about gearbox probs.

In the region of 316 fly kw's on full race setup. These boxes do take alot of stress I have seen wear & tear to M3 DCT boxes in the States. Temp of the oil is very important as friction is the killer. Then again out of plan a new box cost in the region of R120K. But I think that it is serviceable, might be wrong.
