not bad.. not bad at all

and that bloody full throttle shifting is just insane makes more noise than an anti aircraft gun

damn fast too, i think the car is running over 200bhp not sure.. but it didnt loose traction ever and handled fantastically, brakes are good too

all in, i loved it

stu your nuts for selling it, but matt congrats and the power power plans sound FAB

morning steve!!

Full throttle shift, basically it arms after 4000rpm, so when you put your foot on the clutch while still haveing your foot planted on the throttle it holds the revs where you left em, and sounds like a machine gun/guy falkes going off

I used to love doing launches from the rev limiter in mine! Not for anything more than the noise, 8k rpm and the bangs and pops. Awesome!
