i reduced mine to 50% and i still burn through the gears. You still stock or staged?

Is it true 2nd gear reduction reduces all the gears post 2nd gear?

Yes on 05 and 06 cars not or 07 i believe. What works a little better i have found is a nice slow ramp and see how it works for you.

only reason i havent gotten s2 axles is because i heard the tranny will grenade on you. The weaker axles are better as a safety mechanism so that if you break something its only 500.00 instead of 2000+

correct me if im wrong.

could you give me an example ramp up?

also im guessing anything before 4000 rpm the boost is limited as well? not... 100% boost until the hptuner's can read and then reduce to 50%? Sorry about the questions, i have alot to learn on how hptuners is handling our S/C and torque.

My current tune with boost is 50% 70% 90% then 100% throughout in first

On the trans thing with those axles thats not entirely true although it did lead to the destruction of mine that is a ver isolated incident in the broad spectrum of things.

As for the boost question say start at 35% and go up in incrimints of 5 or 10% whatever will work for you, you just need to keep trying a few different methods and you will get it down.
