^what he said. imo, the hardest thing about driving this car is launching it. and WOT shifting (however, this may have some long term consequences as its hard as hell on the car).

other than that the biggest thing i could advise is to RESPECT not only this car, but any car that has a good amount of power. if your new to driving a car that has alot of pep, every hp adds just a little more responsibility in driving the car, abusing that can have consequences.


should also add, before you start toying with various mods, do your research first. mistakes can be very costly

Not really to drive at...just keep it kinda tuned down if its a everyday driver...(you dont want to run full boost around town everyday...You can, but its not necessarily good for the car and isnt gonna give you the best longivity on the life of the turbo) Around 15-16psi everyday driver is acceptable with good maintainence...

for launches there probly is a certain number you would want to be at...but that would depend on your tires and other mods as well...
