If I am coming up to a possibly good looking woman walking on the side walk with her back to me (and I am under boost) I shift early. (They always look back) If there are a bunch of kids staring at the cool car (and I am under boost). I shift when I reach them. (Doing it for the kids officer!) If I am passing a patio full of people (and I am under boost), I don't shift. I just gently let off the gas to get the BOV to flutter.

I uhhhh once open dumped through 2nd under the Carling bridge next to an elderly lady (swear I didn't know she was there) and my passenger said they ducked for cover as if the bridge was about to collapse.

Mine only does it under partial throttle. I could never rev the engine at idle and get it to do it. Bryan. Your auto correct is awesome.

Surge is like letting go of the gas really fast and doesn't feel nice, you will know. "Old Blue" 91 Talon TSi AWD "Super Enthusiast" 91 Talon TSi AWD Checkout DSMFAQ.com!

(if there are pictures or videos, I cant' see them at work...) Turbosmart (not sure which model) Think it's this one without the cone. http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_viewItemBundle.asp?idProduct=27858 Not very clear but you can hear it a little here. Has no negative effect on driveability. I tried softening the spring tension, SOOOOO boring. half second psshh. Back on topic. Depends how I am sitting. Have to shift it left or right.
