The new focus ti is a dry dct and the evo has a wet clutch setup if iam not mistaken. calibrationwise they can be setup similiarly however, with the wet setup, it can take higher trqs and better for drivebility.

Ah yeh good point. I should have looked up te details of ford boxes first.

Continental have a pretty big site. Looks like they make a large amount of parts, sensors and control units for anyone who wants to contract them. Idk if it's worth contacting them direct see if they will sell replacement sensors or provide any info I the tcu. I am guessing razor is already all over every possible angle

I wonder if Mitsubishi is using Chinese made Getrag transmissions/parts. Ford uses a Chinese made Getrag 6 speed in the 5.0 Mustang, which has been giving some owners fits over shifting and gear durability. Anyway, nice find there.

that is correct, but not to the US market atleast to my knowledge.
