But you just gotta love that toggle switch! haha
With a boost gauge, its clearly seen that you are barely driving "on boost" when driving around town. Even so you can "modulate" how much boost your running with ur right foot. But when that baby swings over full boost watch out!

What do you consider 'fast'? The T5 is about as fast as an old 911 Carrera until you get to the first corner. [V70-XC70][2001]
