Something must have gotten lost in translation. In this case dual stands for dual-disc clutch (just like the ZR1) not for two separate clutches like a DSG.
Even though the transmission might be very advanced it still fits in the traditional automatics with torque converter camp, not in the blazingly fast shift speeds based on two separate clutches camp that you can find on the new M3, the upcoming 911's, GT-R, etc. etc.
Yeah, was aware of the twin-disc clutch. Somehow, double clutch just brought to my mind something akin to a dual clutch and I just thought, wow! No, that can't be right. Can it? Kinda was crossing my fingers, even though I knew...
one of those articles quoted a GM guy as saying there's 10% more in there for tuners. Stock with a tune seems like a heck of ride, for a heck of a price.
My tuner, who btw was sworn to secrecy last year , told me they had one on an engine dyno and with modest effort got 700 hp.
A modded V2 is gonna rule the streets and tracks, IMHO.
Question. Been looking for this spec all over and cannot locate it. What is the ride height / Ground clearance of the new 09 CTS-V. Does any one know? This would be most appreciated.
IIRC from my Redneck days, they at least made it four-wheel drive, at least that is why the front hub is telling me.
I bet there is a six-pack of Old Milwaukee and some Moon Pies in the front seat.
