    Sadly, perhaps, Michelin Pilots don't chirp anytime, anywhere.

    True chirping is no fun... hazing them with horsepower on tap is!

    My lame attempt at humor, I guess. I.e. While you guys are chirping 3rd, I have so much power that I can chirp 4th - which I can't of course. Just messin' around. Sorry.

    Lately, since my tune, have been able to break the rear end loose in 2nd... enough to scare myself a few times. It has been the coldest of the winter + 13k miles worn through tires + tuning. I think it has done it once into 3rd but not positive on that.

    Normal for changing the torque management? Does it really rob HP? I have found it more fun to drive because it requires a little pedal work, which makes me enjoy it more than just flooring it.

    Breaking loose on the drag strip (275/40/18) when hitting second is no fun, no fun at all !!!!!! That is what talked me into drag radials.....

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
