I guess the on/off button will be perfect since 90% of my drive time is in traffic where i can have it off, then turn it on for the other 10% of fun driving.
I would like to think that from the seat of the pants the 0-60 has been reduced about half a second. Nothing professional or documented by that statement. Just from my history of modifying cars and how they feel.

The great thing is you can leave it in race all the time, like I have done, and when you are in traffic you arent using any more gas or anything. If you arent on the turbos its not really doing anything.

I was on the highway earlier and just doing 65-95 pulls and it was just fantastic. I just wanted to keep going. It shot up to near triple digit speeds in an instant. Its so smooth and quiet that you dont really feel it, you have to keep an eye on the speedo.

If you get this would you be willing to do a video of the installation? I really want to get this as well but am always a bit paranoid when it comes to messing with engines.

Thanks.

It's so easy that I can redo it and take a video.

That would be awesome! Part of the issue is that I don't have my car right now. I got hit the other day and it's in the shop so I can't look at it right now but a video would be a big help I think. Thanks again!

Honestly, no clue. I put it in race and left it in race. I want the most power possible at all times.

would be nice to have some objective test results, i.e dyno test , 0-60 etc. "seat of the pants" doesn't cut it for me. ... no disrespect intended
