couldn't foot brake it over 1200 rpm due to from what i've read torque management kicking in. this is with traction control turned off. that's no fun. could probably crack a 12 if i could launch harder. i never needed to burn out the tires because of the 2.73 gears and tires.

Get a 2800-3200 stall, 3.42 gears and a tranny cooler. You'll be amazed at the increase in performance while maintaining good street manners!

Once I remove torque management that cuts 50% power at 1200 rpms when I foot brake it. See my torque management thread in scan and tune

I think there's more in it once I get past the torque management issue for launching.
