Default Do you build them for the B5 A4 1.8T? I would think so since STaSIS raced them at one point.

For me, down low 3rd gear on the track isn't great waiting for the turbo to spool and trying to run on just the 4cyl engine. By the time the turbo gets back into the meat of the powerband, it's too late since you're looking at the next turn when you're in some of the slower more techincal areas of many tracks. And, slowing down a little more and getting down the 2nd gets you through the turn faster, but it gives up time doing the 2 extra shifts...which I've measured by when I shift to 2nd to 3rd to 4th and it ends up being the same point on the track if you just staying in 3rd and go to 4th. It would be nice to have 3rd working better for you and get to 4th earlier and actually use 5th. Or, get 2nd usable at slighly higher speeds.

your thoughts?

Default I was gonna get one..

and stasis told me that it doesn't actually help unless your on the track and that otherwise you will just be shifting more. BTW i will soon post an amazing story about customer service at stasis. (As soon as they make good on their promise)
