Do you feel that the PDK will be a transmission that people in the future will convert to in higher powered racecars? Will it take a great deal more power say 600hp+ ?

Well, we already have 430 HP Caymans running with PDK and they are holding up just fine!

Don't Forget Porsche has the Turbo with 600+ HP running with PDK as well, so they have faith in it....

Yet until the 918 makes it's race debut Porsche still don't have a race car with paddle mounted sequential transmissions. You would think that the 991 Cups might have something in store. Any word on that?
Such an advantage on the track with a proper paddle shifter.

The 991 GT3 Cup increase of $20K? or so is mostly due to the new paddle shift system. It's a new system for the GT3 Cup this year, mounted on the wheel.
