I have no problem killing most of them, i have tons of HP, but my problem is the initial boost, i would like to be able to build some boost with the clutch in so i can get going faster, when i floor it in first, my boost doesn't get up until like 3k to 3500 rpm, when it does it goes off the stock guage, (i don't think by much though) but i noticed that when i drove a friends with the stock apc, as compared with my "red" box apc, he boost more in the bottom end then i do, but i keep holding full all the way up, i wish i had his low end, because thats where i get behind, and thats how i lose against mustang cobras, when i first get going i lose that intitial distance and by the time i hit 60 or 70 i'm pulling up hard, if someone tried to outrun me on an autobahn (i wish the u.s had them) in some gas guzzling chevy or ford, i would beat the crap out of them in the top end, (for some reason i get better acceleration from 60 to whatever, in 5th gear than in 4th, i can't figure it out... but anyway... if you have any suggestions like manual boost control or something, i'd love to hear about it, since so far, i've just bought things that give the most bang for my buck (except the chargecooler, 40 hp for 1100 bucks was kinda lame, but it helps me to hold boost longer and get more of it.
