you see these cars making massive hp, boost kicking ib a 4k for like 2,00rpm and its animal to control, and they have no controlers to make it drivable

yeah but you see them, you havent driven them. people can always judge things and seem an expert without experiencing any of it.
i drive my car a lot. on the 0.6 bar map it grips really well and is completely controllable. im part way through making a new map using different throttle percent to control the boost so when i drive it, it wont peak until 100% throttle thus making it easier to control round corners.
