Default Loss in Acceleration (225hp)

I am feeling like a bit acceleration is lost in my car after my friend tried to take off from the light( exactly 3 times). He tried to spin the wheels like he does in his firebird (after that I never let him get in my cars's driver seat though).

My car's warranty expires next month, so I am getting it checked before that. The clutch seems to be okay, is there anything that may have been damaged by just starting from the line rashly couple of times? The turbo kicks in fine, but I am wondering if something may have happened during those rash take offs that may hurt the pickup (like loss in boost)?

Also what all should I get checked from the dealership to ensure the pickup is the same as originally it was?

Please suggest. Thanks.

Default Never trust a friend...>>

with either your car or your girlfriend. he probably would have abused her too. I can't think of anything that would result in a permanent lack of pick-up...Anything serious would show up as a check engine light...

Friend in High School had one with a 4 or 6 banger, eternally known as the FireChicken.
