Overboost on TT.
When you use overboost (hit the sports button) - I understand you get more power for x seconds. Is that:
a. Only when you floor it. So if you take your foot off the accelarator does it go back to normal ?.
b. If you floor it for x seconds and then the overboost stops - can you blip the throttle to have it engage again ?. or is there a waiting period ?.
c. Is it instant on - so if I am at the lights - overboost kicks in immediately.
I was just curious - since I have it on my order - and wondered exactly how it worked - any insight would be much appreciated.

The overboost mode is active only with: wide open throttle, between 2100 and 4000 RPM, and lasts about 10 seconds. It can be reactivated by releasing the throttle then flooring it again.
I think it will be reactivated immediately, but you will have to be in that 2100-4000 rev range. Try it when you get your car. You'll like it.
BTW, congrats on the anticipated car.
