Where are you coming up with stuff? Did someone actually tell you this?

100% wrong on both points.

Well the tuning point was just a theory...the 1st gear thing was me thinking about a problem a fiend of mine is having with boost spike. I forget that not everybody has that.

What version of Uber are you using? I saw some setting about gears in the newest version...not really sure what it was. I was just in the car watching my buds car get tuned.

Dont be an asshat either guy. I dont see you trying to help him

like turboda6 said.
it`s prob.ly just the size of the turbo.
(what`s the size of the turbo? i didn`t read the whole post :P)
mine don`t see boost in 1st and it wouldn`t hit full boost in second.
