This was over a year ago and both cars are making significantly more power now.
So are you pushing 500whp now? That would be insane!

It makes me squeamish every time I see someone accelerate hard to 100+ and then throw the transmission into neutral like that. It is SO dangerous.

Unless you are sitting in traffic at a redlight, ALWAYS have your car in gear. Whether you are moving, stopped, parked, etc.
I'm sorry, but I'm not very technical...why do you say this??????

I don't mean to hijack the thread, so you can e-mail me privately if you like.

Thank you,

There are so many reasons.
thats why

and a few posts down someone says something else.
