yeah it will. joys of having an ecu with 3 maps in it means i will be using the low boost 350bhp map for everday use. safer and stuff.
will see what it gets up to. will kinda turn boost up till it stops making power i reckon.

poof 
Once you get going the weight advantage should mean you catch up quick.
I estimate a high 11 is possible for our car.... with only 480bhp or whatever is running. Once we find the missing 100 horses maybe a mid 11 if we can get it off the line decently
