Makes quite a difference, no launch control means you're relying on the car tester to get a decent launch not withstanding the shifts in every gear as well. The M4 was 0.5 seconds down on the RS5 by the 30kph point, that's a significant gap that it hauls in impressively proving it's straight line speed advantage.

With a good launch with DCT I wouldn't think 13.5 sec to 200kph is unrealistic.
