What are your thoughts on transmission cooling? I have a 25 row on the current 7AT. Sufficient for the DCT even at higher power levels at the track?

a 7AT would use the same driveshaft since it has the same differential case and pinion flange. The only thing that may be different about the 7AT car install is going to be on the electronics side. There will likely be some different DTC codes than the manual car, and the way the gear position indicator in the cluster is wired is very different. But as far as physical installation of the trans, it should be identical.
For cooling, I dont have any good answers for that since we haven't used the trans for anything other than driving around on the street for a total of maybe 45 min so far!
Seb was going into high power with it today, and still loves it. He does unfortunately need to tear it down and go inside the electronics on the side of the trans to make an electrical repair where the transmissions previous owner's wiring is causing an intermittent short that is blowing the TCM fuse randomly. He bought the trans from someone who was swapping it into another car, and had already performed the internal wiring. Apparently they didnt do a very good job so hes going to have to go in. Good for experience at least.
