Has anyone been brave enough with their new beloved car to bounce off the limiters or are you treating them like 4 week old kittens ?
Anyone know the mphs for the limiter in each gear ?

yep, well as far as DSG will take it in manual! but car has almost 2k on the clock now and I ran her in up to 500 then after that slowly increased how much power i used
Car is now Sold!!!!! BMW 7 Series for now as nice and big but holding out for something a little special as my toy
