few years into the future there will be no more gear's as it will be like the adjustable/variable turbo on the 911 which will always keep revs low and pick up high. This is my wishfully thinking

I think is maybe the dry cluthes, last generation of gear-box use oil-submerged clutches. So maybe precautions method are taken to prevent the new 7-speed gearbox dont wear-off fast since it consume less auto lubricant.. With the oil-submerged cluthes, it may handle more friction and heat so it is good for performance cars…

Read a review comparison between the GTI and GT (1.4 TSI). The new 7-speed DSG doesn't seem to perform as well as the GTI's 6-speed DSG counterpart. The response is slower than than the 6-speed's box.

Anyhow, having a 1.4 TSI + 7-speed with both performance and good fuel consumption. I don't think anyone will complaint.

Any chance we we ever see VW engine in other car brand?

Or any chance of seeing DSG from other car manufacturer?

To be honest DSG from VW are so far ahead its competition this is not funny.
