Clubsport Edition 40 Overboost Question

[SWEGTI]

If you have the transmission in S before you switch to manual, then you get overboost.

[SWEGTI]

Overboost only works in S mode and gear 3 and above, 10s maximum. It also works using LC.
This according to german forums. And i notice a difference when overtaking in 3.rd and 4:th  with the transmission in S VS D.

Nope, further North.

Hi SWEGTI,
What is the "LC" you mention?
Thanks!

I guessed launch control but could be wrong.

Yes, I’d guess that too!

Correct :-)

Ahhhh yes makes sense.
Mine is manual so this didn't occur to me!

I was playing with my 'sport' and 'custom' modes recently and using the boost reading (which shows demand boost - thanks scanesare  ) I found that the car only demands the full 2.2bar in sport mode, in custom mode with all the settings set to the highest performance, it will not go that high, only to the same 265ps as ECO mode.

The point of that was that I was trying to get the full performance but with the soundaktor turn off, but you can't do that.

I like the natural sound of the car and always found the soundaktor to sound like an old beetle or riced-up Impreza, but I guess I just have to stop listening when I press the loud pedal and enjoy it with all my other senses 

Thanks guys.

5 minute job to unplug the soundaktor if you don't like it or turn it off electronically with OBD11. If you haven't got one there is usually someone helpful on here who will offer for beer tokens.
