991.2 GT3 Manual
Recently took delivery of a 2018 Manual .2 GT3. Had a .1 previously which was obviously PDK.
Both had identical MR setups put on them. Interesting to note the .1 was keener to get into a corner and my theory is with the E-Diff on PDK, it can be fully open on entry vs c.30% locked on the mechanical diff on a manual. One thing I am unsure about is if there is a torque limit on the manual box?
I'm certain my .1 was a little more urgent in 1st and 2nd than this manual car. Between 8k and 9k RPM, the manual car doesn't sing quite as loudly in the cabin as when you're in 3rd and 4th gear - almost as if it isn't working at full power. I used to have this on my 2010 Focus RS which was torque limited in 1st and 2nd.
Is anyone aware if there are limits to the manual box or if there is some sort of cap in 1st and 2nd?
