NOTE:
Mid turbo gives smooth power out of corners, but has sharp drop off, so short shift or adapt your gearing to maximise mid rpm power. Probably want to change from MID turbo if racing at top speed/power track.
For more lift off turn in, raise fr ride height and lower rr same amount, change 3mm at a time i.e. 135/ 132, 138/132.
Recommend running long 1st and 2nd gear to help put power down, with mid turbo it helps to protect front tyres from too much wear.
