The double clutch gearbox of the SLS is slower than that of the 458 (same gearbox) because its re-inforced due to the torque numbers as faster shifting cant cope with the torque.

Interesting, didn't know that! Those transmissions must be bullet-proof. I wonder what kind of additional re-inforcement they did to this one to handle the four-digit torque.

I spoke with the owner....

he bought it used, sent straight to RennTech


motor comes out, cylinder heads decked (not sure if any other work)
limited slip rear diff added, tranny strengthened, full exhaust all the way back, full program, carbon underside (dunno if this was just a BS thing) Im sure there is more, but thats what I caught.
