I also have rolling launch, so I have full boost without accelerating, and can launch with zero spoolup time.
Thanks for the answer, Mike. A90, yes. Hiw about cruising in 8th then drop the hammer. Already having shifted to 4th doesn't count. I want to know response from off boost and off gear since that's where I am most of the time on the street. I read the transmission can shift from 8th to 4th no problem. 200ms, but then that will probably delay building boost even more. Responsiveness compared to an EV is what I care about.
