I know of two cars having them installed, but they aren't running yet. Shouldn't be to much longer...

One of the cars is in NJ

You'll have to wait till people report back how they work. I haven't heard anything yet. Why do you want them? Is your DCT slipping in your 335?

The clutch before the horse(power) perhaps haha ya, I think they will deliver, but if there are no legit dct solutions I'll switch to 6mt. Ridiculous, over-the-top tuner setups, a la underground racing, heffner, etc have always been so intriguing to me, and this is as close as I'll get to a tt aventador in this lifetime

We have been working together with Dodson for a few months now to become their authorized dealer. We are really excited to sell their products! At the moment, we are performing an installation on the first set for a customer. We will have pictures and more information soon.

+1 I'd like to know this as well.

I could be wrong but I remember hearing the whole job is pretty labor intensive....

I thought it was about the same as changing the clutch in a manual car.
There was a teardown documented in another forum but I don't have the link to hand.
