"Slush box" is the old style torque converter automatic, very little in common with a PDK, which is a manual transmission controlled by a computer. I want to stay under $40k so I won't mind balling it up at the track so much.
Just to close the loop here- I ended up buying the car. It was a perfect one for me.
I reset the PDK adaptations and that helped a bunch. Additionally, once I realized putting the car in sport plus when in manual mode was a thing… problem solved. The paddles respond much more quickly.
I am probably 50% in sport auto and 50% in sport plus manual. The car is a blast.
I had ordered the PDK tune from FVD but ended up cancelling that part of the order. After a couple of hundred miles yesterday, it seemed unnecessary.
