The old girl will be recieving some tuning upgrades, rear end modification, gearing modification and some very smart ignition tweaks within the next week or so..

I don't really know the terminololg... But here goes....

I believe that Dave ( blueboost) was playing some ignition twaeks.. Similar to what they do on rally cars, to give the manuals boost off the line and help maintain it during shift changes.... I can't recall if he was successsful or not... Will you be attempting to do similar?

Does anyone know the correct terminology for what I described???

Launch assistance is featured on I6 Turbos matched to Ford's new six-speed manual transmission and is activated when the vehicle is stationary with clutch fully disengaged. In this situation the electronic throttle limits engine revs to a maximum of 3500rpm by cutting fuel which in turn allows the 'cut' cylinders to 'spool' the turbo with cool fresh air.
