Imagine in your DCT that there was a delay in power after shifting, you'd want to find a solution too.

Yes. All 6MT owners know that we’re sacrificing shift speed over DCT and
some lag due to that. What we don’t expect is DME introduced additional lag for no good reason. It’s something that bothered me since day one, and I think it’s something that tuners have not focused on because they often have DCT cars and are simply unaware of it.
I first started getting annoyed about it when trying to match the 0-60 times published in magazines. The additional lag between first and second makes it near impossible to achieve the 4.3s claimed, particularly stock, because we get an entire second off boost after shifts.
It’s my suspension that either BMW had custom software on journalists cars, or the journalists did no lift shifts to get their times, the latter being more likely.
