*****Fast Intentions Twin Turbo: OFFICIAL REVIEW THREAD*****

just curious how guys with more modest power levels (around or <500whp) are doing in terms of traction. Would I need new rubber (running 245/285 re-11s) at about 450whp?

First is useless. You'll be able to give it 1/2-2/3 throttle in second, but it may still break loose at peak torque. You can go WOT in third. That's on 245/285s.

And I love how "at or around 500whp" has now become "modest" power. Thanks, Tony.
