@LucidMomentum, since you still have the throttle switch, you should probably let it rev to at least 3000 RPM's before you kick in the ESC. It's kind of like nitrous in a way. You only have so much stored capacity, and if you hit it too soon it just wastes it. Make sure to use your OFT and display MAP to see how much boost you're getting. Basically, it's every PSI over 14, (sea level) that's how much boost you're getting. I feel more power at 4000 RPMs and 15 PSI, than I do at 2000 RPMs and 17 PSI. The extra pressure doesn't seem to create power until the RPMs are up high enough. Bottom line, with the throttle switch, the ESC is occasional fun, while with the Procede, it can be constant fun. This morning, running V4 Sport-Procede map, and my most powerful tune, I drove Northeast on Germantown Rd, from left to right on pic below, through hairpins, switchbacks and high banked 10 and 15 MPH corners. It was constant fun!
