heh.. well i guess this would be a good spot to ask a question, sam could comment too.
u no turboing an fto compromises it's handling where the boost could kick in while your turning and u could loose control - is this really completely "fixed" if u get it tuned properly, or is this always an issue and something you have to learn by your instinct with practice?

like if u get it tuned properly, then is there no chance of that happening or will it still happen but with proper tuning it'll be minimal? sorry if this is a stupid question but im just curious..

nope it will still want to rip out of your hands, its like when s15 tails slide out...

but since fto is FWD it will just turn in a random direction :P
