Apparently torque to the wheels can be improved. I admit that despite reading a bit about this, I do not completely understand it. Perhaps one of our experts can chime in. Straight from Dinan's site (Dinan's 3.45 differential for DCT M3's):

Dinan lowers the stock 3.15 final drive ratio to a 3.45, taking full advantage of torque multiplication for a substantial 9.5% increase in torque delivered to the road! The improved acceleration comes with only a minor increase in engine speed at cruise.
