most people say 300 miles off boost and below 3k rpm

Jabba recommend 400 at 4k max; wonder if anyone's managed that?

ha... i just saw that somewhere else said 250 below 2.5k....

think i will consult g-werks in the morning! and it is so so hard... especially when i haven't had my car on the road for over a month.... and when some chavvy prick in some piece of shit civic is about 2" off your back bumper the first time you take it out.... Next time he won't see me for dust.

250 miles below 4k is what G-Werks recommend!
