    I thought most of the air shift solenoids were in the 100psi range? Most onboard air setups should support that, and any of the kits I've seen road racing had that for air pressure supply. You can also cut spark during shifts. Seems fawking with throttle opening on shifts would result in loss...

    Supras had them, most ditched it for a single setup, but that’s because you could make stupid power back then…

    has anyone seen a compound turbo set up in the dunes?
