You don't drive it properly, Tom. Rev it and drop the clutch and mine flies, just have to change into second pretty quickly.

Well, I'm not a fan of clutch slip or wheel spin, so no lol. That might work in a stage 1 DT, but not with the amount of torque I'm sticking through a 132k clutch lol.

Did someone say second gear launches? That'll get you going quick enough andavoid that silly first gear

I do launch in 2nd most of the time tbf (the dmf's already f*cked anyway), but thats crap cos you have to wait ages for the turbo kick in as mines lost all low end pull since the turbo change.

Ah well, won't be keeping it much longer anyway.

So you're not a fan of clutch slip, but you launch in second gear regularly..? And you wonder why the 132k DMF's shagged..? You change your turbo for a bigger one and bemoan the lack of low-end torque and raised boost threshold..? Dude, seriously, are you backwards or just full of the brown stuff?

The dmf was already broken, why treat it gently, its not gonna fix itself..... Plus I don't often do grand prix starts, and I keep rolling up to roundabouts or lights (saves fuel if you don't come to a complete stop) so pulling away at idle in 2nd is fine. Never slipped the clutch like that.

With the turbo, yeah maybe I am a 'tard.....or maybe I trusted people too much saying 'its a vnt turbo they never lag'.....bollocks! I genuinely didn't realise it'd ruin ky car that much, I hope the actual 150tdis (where my turbo is from) aren't this shit to drive!
