I had thought about buying one of the twin-charge Skoda Fabias (a later one that doesn't burn oil for fun!) and building something with that, rather than going for a Ford. I saw one on rallycarsforsale.net that was using the standard 7-speed DSG, but wasn't sure how good the ratios would be. I assumed they would be geared for pretty high speed like most road 'boxes.
clutches are part of the gearbox. Mine for example are wet and run in the oil. I use an external GCU from HTG in Poland to map the box.
Plenty information on Google. Plenty conversions around now.
Only 1 YB Cosworth DCT 7 speed 4wd in the world though.
My shifts are faster than that now. Down at 30ms at full load. Then nice and slow at light throttle off power.
Not used it on a rally yet. Not renewing my license again this year.
Hopefully get a test day at Anglesey though.
