I am trying to figure out the best way to set up my colt so that I do not fall out of boost during the 1-2 shift and the 2-3 shift. Currently I have decent street tires with no rev limiter. The big problem is launching, I spin completely through 1st, and since I don't have a rev limiter when I get to 7200rpm I have to shift but my speed isn't up because I'm spinning so when I shift into 2nd I am out of boost. Same thing goes when I shift from 2nd to third. I know DR would help the spinning but not completely. So I was thinking about getting a revlimiter but I was wondering if anyone could come up with a better or alternate solution, like maybe a two stage boost control. I am open to any suggestions because I think a lot of people are having the same problem. Maybe I should just go to a ball bearing turbo to compensate for the lag between shifts.

Keydiver Stage III chip.

Reasoning..... No lift to shift at your specified rev limit.

so.. between your shifting, keep your foot on the accelerator, push clutch and stutterbox turns on to keep the REVS up keeping you in boost.

yup, a stutterbox is what you need.

Yeah first I need a 1990 Eprom, shouldn't be too hard to find since 1g DSMlink just came out . But I will definitely look into it and I appreciate your replies.

electronic boost controllers are great as well, you can have the boost prograssively ramp up from low to high boost in 1st adn 2nd, and then have full tilt in 3rd on up/

jason let me know if you want to drive mine it has the chip in it so you can get a feel for what its like
