That’s right, my little 325 was side by side with Paulo’s 335…50-80mph highway romp. Both of us started in third, being auto mine shifted to overdrive around 75 while Paulo’s manual trans held the gear the entire run.

Was just like a scene out of Fast n Furious, both of us exchanging glances during the this-is-taking-way-too-long race…however mean mugging was replaced with smiles and laughter as Paulo was in NA mode, lol.

For those that aren’t aware, Procede tunes allow you to go into complete NA mode on the fly, just dumping the wastegates. In NA mode the car makes about ~170 whp but runs ~30mpg. I’ve never spent so much time in third gear. It was painfully slow. (No offense, Mike) lol

So do you use the NA mode when the fuel pump blows up too?
