I've never tried it in reverse, but I have been in VtaK in 6th gear!! I took her to 150MPH and she had 3 hundred rpms left!

but I'm concerned about making full boost since the turbocharger will be spinning backwards.


I think we're missing the point of this thread, since when does your turbo spin backwards when you go into reverse?

Don't do it. No one knows what will happen. You could enter another diminsion and be V-teching in reverse for an eternity. What a miserable end this would be.

I wondered when Scot's name would come up in this thread.
