I believe Fordmanmorgan worked with Randy at one point.  You could PM him, haven't seen him on here in a while.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Good deal, I think we know where he stands based on the conversation he had with the focus group... I know Unleashed does not use throttle to control anything, not sure about LME, and I think Cobb who doesn't tune SHO's can tune either way based on the forums, our local community tuner AJP can tune either way... To me it's pretty interesting that outside of our forums it appears to be a very common topic.. and since us SHO owners are way cooler I was just getting our take on the subject...

Funny... If you read the two combined articles then for road courses... You can utilize throttle closings to help prespool the turbo for part throttle acceleration... But for balls to the wall 1/4 mile times then WOT makes sense?

Yeah the dichotomy is interesting.  Could be a bug, could be deliberate IDK.  Maybe they dont want you making sudden changes at speed, maybe torque steer issues, maybe protecting the AWD?
