Rick - yeah.....be careful bro. I rarely drive my car this time of the year and had her out yesterday briefly. Traction is non existent. You should wait until the spring for 60-130 runs.

^this is true..weather has its pro and cons.....getting traction is hard........but the air at this time of the year is unbeatable lol

JJ lets get together soon!!

Daft · 02-03-2012, 02:37 PM

The car is 10x funner to drive on boost eh!
Now probably a silly question but how did you get the DCT to downshift from 5th to 3rd and get it to hold it there for a sec while in D without accelerating?

datbimmerdoe · 02-03-2012, 03:18 PM

badass build!! really like the plenum.

n enjoy ur "new" beast.

haha that it is......put the car in D with the shift set to extreme....then push the pedal down to the floor (Without hitting the kickdown button)and then release the pedal (literally takes a second - just go full throttle then completely off the gas), and the car will downshift to the lowest gear for best acceleration...then just accelerate as you want after

oOok I didn't know you could get it to downshift and hold the low gear for you. I never drive on auto anyway just curious how you got it to behave like that. Cool info to know!

went out tonight to try a few runs, stopped after my first attempt LOL:
