Was Stage 2 tune from Bootmod3 and running a JB4 for a boost controller, as it was nearly undrivable before I adjusted the boost to a progressive setting.


Below's a video of what my engine looked like after.. lol
Wait... if you didn't let the clutch out, you didn't money shift. Shifting into the wrong gear and triggering rev match to hit the limiter is not something that should harm the car in any way. So, was the tune the reason it wasn't covered under warranty?
