Is that a compliment on my choice of route or that you were just playing catch up? :)
If you're not living life on the edge, you're taking up too much room!

Pretty sure I was behind Al and the Boxster S at that point but I don't remember you boosting away from me on the straights, I'd be surprised if you could ;)

Actually I take it back, the road to Kidderminster, I was behind the Boxster S and you were holding him up :P lol

Yours packs a bit of a bigger punch than mine with your rev4 Gubbins! I think he was struggling to keep up after 60mph in the boxster on the straights, but real world stuff neither here or there really. Just my s**t driving around the twisties letting me down and holding everyone up! :laughing :blush:

It is a bit skittish though in my defence..

Roads where good, definitely a swift catch up, on firm suspension. Only one section was undulating.

Sounds like you need to turn down your "start" boost setting on your ebc, so it starts to control the boost a little earlier. On my Greddy, if I have the start boost at 13+ psi it'll boost within a 10th of a second to it then it feels like I've hit a brick wall as the ebc takes control, knocking it down to 10psi gives a much more consistent power curve.
