I think the BMW DCT can't handle the torque. BMW doesn't want to spend money on developing a new DCT to handle the torque so they went with the ZF.
Right, so a DCT in principal CAN handle it and if bmw just doesn't wanna spend the money to either buy one or develop one themselves that's diff than blatantly saying DCTs in general can't handle it. Just sayin this is bmw choice, theyre not limited by engineering
