Right on, let us know when you figure it out ;-)

Umm, doesn't a 7 speed sequential type gearbox just make you feel all warm
and fuzzy inside :)

True Happesizing would be to check how to fit the 7 speed double-clutch
manual gearbox on the I5 ;-)

Interesting snippet in Road&Track on the Bugattie EB16-4 Veyron

"The heart of this new super exotic is an 8.0 liter W-16 engine
(essentially
a 90-degree joining of two of Volkswagen's VR-8 powerplants, which have
a
15-degree offset between alternating cylinders) that produces a
prodigious
1001 bhp at 6000 rpm and 922 lb.-ft of torque at 5500 RPM.  The engine,
which has four turbochargers, is relatively compact at 29 in. long and
31
in. wide.
The gearbox is a 7-speed paddle activated manual with no clutch pedal.
The
double-clutch gearbox provides shifts in less than .2 second and
transmits
power to all four wheels via its permanent all-wheel-drive system.
Bugatti
claims a top speed of 252 mph for the Veyron and 0-186 mph in less than
14
sec. Amazing."

Wow.
