Im always afraid to shift without letting off the throttle from 1st to second...can anyone tell me a good rpm to do this? Do I ease off the gas at all?? Im just afraid of breaking shit to pieces but I know that first initial shift costs me atleast .2 or .3 seconds second to third and third to fourt im as fast as can be. Should I WOT shift all gears?

MMMMMMMM Anyway, You always wanna stab that clutch peddle to the floor when you WOT. You just wanna keep your throttle peddle to the floor while you do this. WOT is hard on the drive train. Not using the clutch at all would be disasterous. I regular shift the 1-2 and WOT the rest at the track at about 6000RPM.

6k RPM, I'm not sure what the best RPM to shift at with the stock turbo setup is but I've tried shifting at different points and 6k seems to work for me. You might want to try 5800-6000? Good luck!
