Hi Gary, After reading your answer I went and check my Aero. > > I just tried a test: cruising at 30+mph at ~3500rpm, I floored it and > timed how long it took for the boost gauge to reach the "red" zone. On > average, it was 1.3sec. Full power didn't kick in until sometime after > that. 30+mph at ~3500rpm that is 2nd gear man????. As I mention in my previous mail, to test problems with lag is better to use the higher gears because engine management + ECP + ... kicks in at low gears. I believe it is intended to do so. Anyway to check your point, I floored in 3rd gear at 60mph and the boost gauge jumped to the red part in about 0.2 sec not much more than that. The car reacted accordingly.
