Any problem with the DCT clutches handling the increased power?

No, Gpower are very wary of this... the package is more than capable of producing more power but Gpower say that 600bhp is enough power without having any problems with the DCT

Thanks... the reason I went with Gpower is because I trust the guys opinon at Evolve.... I had only one issue with the kit, that they cut into the top part of the car (pic attatched) I told them that unless they could find an alternative method that I would not purchase....

Yes... they lowered the intercooler more than Gpowers fitment and they had to manufacture a custom made coolant pipe because the one that came with the kit was rubbing against the pulleys. The result in lowering the intercooler means that there is no rubbing on the hood which was also a previous issue with the original fitment.

If you look at the othe pic I have attached you can see the difference.
Also notice that the airbox is carbon now.

Now i see. That is very cool. I wonder if Evolve can chime in and explain the modified process they used. Or even better, shoe GPower and have them make the change to their kit!!
