no smoke = best ..... if your making 800hp then u might see just a little haze of black smoke but with the hp everyone here is making it should be clean , except for maybe between shifts dude to blowing off to atmosphere without running full standalone .

It dosen't smoke all the time... Only when you get on it, due to being rich.

ok thanks alot guys!

btw, what is this deal about not using 5th gear? are you not supposed to hit the high RPMS in 5th gear? not use 5th at all???? Im really confused about this... lets say you are racing, should you ONLY go up to 4th gear ???

They do not want you to be in boost for that long but with the stage 0 I hit the 127 MPH pretty fast anyways so it really does not matter. They are just being a little too cautious.

I don't know what your talking about, but when we race, 115 is usually where I shut it down at. But I'm never paying attention to the speed really. I just shut it down, when I'm in the lead, and there is no chance of them coming back.

Well they are saying fifth gear is like an overdrive, and I dont think you will be hitting 5th gear alot on a strip, well you wont be redlining it I dont think.

If you do, well your tc is fast then.....lol
