The answer is probably DCT. Since there was no firmware and no testing for B58 + DCT, even if it bolts up, they either had to switch to the ZF8 or keep DCT and use S55. They chose S55 and DCT. I think stock S55 and DCT are better for track use and fit the character of the car a bit more.

Exactly this. Why would you spend much R&D dollar to match a new engine with a defunct gearbox, just for one model? Makes no sense.
The ZF8 is not to be underestimated, it really does give maximum performance with only a little trade off in 'race car' feel. It really is a winner.
