But what if the ME car offered you far better capabilities, at your current level of skill?

Because that's what most people will get, the car will be easier to extract higher performance from.

Sure you can, but my understanding from Tag, if you break it, you bought it. It's not covered under warranty, like the dry sump cars are(as long as it's not a "race").

So you'd see a spike in iat's, can you actually see a difference in temp at different rates of meth, I guess I'm wondering if it's adjusted to use just what you need at that load, or is it on or off?
