As my cat has been whining for the last hour and I am now up, I may as well comment.
The engine low friction coating was applied to all 4.7 engines from 2011 onwards.
Carbon ceramics, the brake issues with steels on the 4.7 has always been an issue. They are not man enough and warp.
As Zep points out, the Strads slam the gear from one gear to another without going into neutral position first hence the viscous nature.
DMS tuned Dan! GTS to a claimed 505hp from stock 440hp on my old GTS. We spent an afternoon doing rolling and standing starts and there was no difference.
If you want a Strad, buy one and don’t waste your time and money trying to mod something.
Right I’m off to kick that cat up the @rse!
