I thought wheel spin is the last thing you want in a launch, that it slows you down immeasurably? I thought less throttle with no wheel spin beats wheel spin launch...am I wrong?

Is this true for manual? And if all off makes it MUCH quicker off the line, does SPORT mode make it half quicker?

Does OFT raise rev limiter?

I'd like to be able to hit 60 instead of 58 in 2nd gear. Does OFT make this possible? Anyone run a good 0-60 in just 1st and 2nd gears with with a rev limiter raised due to a tune?

K, I don't mind waiting it out. He's probably got a million questions to field right now. Can't bother someone over a free product (as regards MAPS)

Now that I've seen the thread on 2.0 MAPS, I am really close to pulling the trigger on an OFT. My car is all stock, so this would be my first upgrade of any kind.
