Lol, ya, it makes all the boost between 4400-4800rpm. I have the .86 a/r. It's a laggy mofo.
Like for example the other way I was trying to get ahead of some cars to get onto the freeway, I floored it, when it hit about 5k the tires started spinning, so I shifted, and it stayed in the boost so I shifted again. I'll grant I was miles ahead of the other cars by then. But basically you can't just carelessly take off. I suppose my turbo is bad and probably what a lot of people don't like for that reason.
I do drive fast and I like taking off fast to get in front of people and stuff, it's easier with more power, but it's also harder with more power if that makes any sense.

I'm comparing your driving eperience with mine. I have a ca & t28 and I can pretty much decide exactly what boost I want by pressing in or releasing the pedal. When I start to build boost I can cut it down from 14 to say 5 psi or whatever I want. My brother's car is the same way. You have another buffer with the clutch controlling the power. Granted, I'm probably 100hp shy of you, but my brother pretty close.
I do see what you mean, the power is harder to anticipate. I ride the clutch a bit before pulling out to determine how much gas to give it when I pull out. Maybe I'm just a slow driver compared to alot of people.
