Default How much boost with your 2 Step?
How much boost do you build on it and what rpm do you have it set at? Also could you say if you are an auto or manual.

Each car is different, you will have to try until the car feels good. Try starting it at 3500 and go from there.

I tried it at 3600 rpms and wanted to push through the brakes. It started raining so I didn't get to try it with the lower rpm.
