Thanks, Ralph. I confirm that the VF39 definitely does not spool up as quickly as the 40. Lots of turbo lag, so though i tried to not launch the car, i found i absolutely had to. my worst times were in the 14's with 2.5 60 ft times! that turbo takes a while to spool up. on the 5EAT, i ended up having to torque brake to about 2800 rpms just to build enough boost. had I gone super crazy with the launch, I probably could have gotten much lower, but that would have been ONLY if the wind god allowed.

that headwind was kicking my butt all morning!

from a DEAD stop, no launch, base map with main RT, in regular auto:
.9888
2.5060
6.2422
9.3122
80.07
14.2050
99.36

You can see the differences (but this is also in some crazy wind!)
