Torque with a turbo would be the advantage I think. My last turbo car had more torque than hp, lol, meaning if they offered a DCT with it, it would HAVE to be beefier, otherwise I'd imagine it would get a 6MT.

But an engine factory turbo'd is just easier to upgrade the turbo... oil lines already tapped, intercooler already mounted and unless they want to raise the hood it would probably be a baby front mount, meaning easier upgrade options there too.
