it's hard to start the turbos in 3rd... they barely like to get moving in first without giving em at least 500 RPM more than the NA (either that, or I'm still getting used to the turbo after 1k miles...)

I learned on the 944, and did quite well too!

Well save for the sign, but that wasn't shifting related. YOU JUST GOT ROCKED!
