I did not do a burnout at all, just pulled up to the line and flat-footed it. Didn't try to stall it up or anything on the KD's. Seemed to work OK

LOL I was one of the naysayers in the beginning, and I helped put the friggin thing on!
This car has turned out to be quite impressive. Driveability is just like a stock vehicle, and what turbo lag there is (not much) helps the car from a dead punch on the street.
I think the car has 10 second potential in drag race trim and good air. It just doesn't get any better than that with a TRUE daily driver!
