so i dont think they 'took it' from anyone. they hired a company and told them what they needed, and how it would need to be implemented. and the company gave its version.
if i start a new car company it doesnt mean i took an evo and made it better..... see what i mean?
but, i might be wrong. i read most of this info like i said 4 years ago, maybe the same company made the trannies for all 5 or 6 companies.

http://www.caradvice.com.au/3810/mit...in-clutch-sst/The highlight of the package though is the new Twin Clutch SST. Although Mitsubishi have changed the name, it is essentially a similar setup to Volkswagen/Audi’s DSG.

That's not true. ITs been shown that the RA and Gen coupe share the same open deck design, esssentially making it a factory turbo kit on an N/A Lancer 4b11. The Evo X has a differently cast block and is a semi-closed deck design, making it stronger.

The fact that the end result is similar to VAG's doesn't make it the same with a different name.

That's interesting, because it doesn't jibe with whats in this thread, which you even posted in about it having an open deck.

My biggest beef with the Genesis 2.0L turbo is that while it's similar in design to the 411B the block is a fair bit weaker so high HP will require major internal upgrades or even a 411B block swap. The Hyundai 2.0L is open deck and has only 2-bolt mains which means it's really no stronger than your garden variety aluminum block 4-cylinder. The Ralliart will be able to accept much more power.

The Ralliart uses the same engine as the EVO X with a smaller turbocharger and revised fuel system. The Ralliart and EVO X 411B blocks are identical so you are clearly wrong and so is the article. I especially like how they can estimate 400HP from an engine without any basis other than looking at the block.
I could care less about being wrong about the RA, hooray. The Genesis does not use an Evo X bloc.

I only edited to show that the article was lacking expertise. It isn't the first time I've edited a post and it won't be the last time and I've read that article previously at NASIOC. It's got nothing to do with being man enough for anything.
