Default 2 step with Turbo...

When i use my 2 step i love that loud as hell popping it does when i'm ready to launch...Is that bad to do that all the time or is it ok to do it sometimes??....Should i just give it half throttle and run the 2 step or should i just floor it and run the step??

to my knowledge its ok to do but it will shorten the life span of the turbo... basically try not to do it at every light is what im saying

Get a clutch activation switch because it would be very difficult to hold a switch while gettign ready to launch.
