Nobody has ever driven my car since it was over 250hp. Frankly with my current setup, boost and therefore power delivery is very very different in each gear and someone unfamiliar with that would have some sudden surprises. Plus the likelyhood of something falling off or severing itself has proven itself to be very high.

Today, I got my transmission oil. Go to fill it up, open the top plug... fluid comes out, meaning it's filled.... thanks car, 2 days ago you didnt do this. Thanks for regenerating some transmission fluid.
So that was the last thing I wanted to check. Then I setup launch control and put on the ALL OF IT wastegate. That one hits about 15 to 17 psi just on wastegate. So with some boost control loving, ALL OF IT is possible. I got to about 22psi. Holy jesus christ!
Launch control is also incredible. I can build like close to 20 psi, launch in 2nd and lay down 150ft of tire marks, basically all the way to 55mph or whatever I hit in 2nd. Its great. Obviously I did it right in front of my office, so I can brag tomorrow.
Launch control datalog. 3900 rpm spark cut retard to 1* launch
