Could someone provide more details into the AT transmission? I thought that it was a dual clutch...

Let the information flow continue...
It's not a dual clutch. It's a typical slush-box with a torque converter. It's just better than most every other slush-box out there.

Just be advised that if you want to go FI you should get the MT. The 7AT is very limited in how much power it can handle and, as of now, there's not much readily available to help it hold more power. From the factory it is rated to a maximum 298 lb-ft, and recently we had one grenade that was pushing only 350 lb-ft via supercharger.

The 6MTs are rated to 332 lb-ft from the factory but with a clutch/flywheel upgrade they can take a good bit more.
