No the DCT is the same in both models. Perhaps the other poster was referring to the manual box in the 35i vs the DCT in the 35is (DCT does not hold high revs for long before shifting up, for whatever reason). I too found it annoying at first. But to be fair, why would you want to keep revs at the top of the band without shifting?
