Turbos are badass don't get me wrong, I love my Subaru, but there is a technique to driving them right. I learned about 2 yrs ago when I go tired of giving up a couple cars to everyone I raced right at the start. When you brake spool up to full boost and then let off the brake its nuts.
BTW, you should need about half throttle to do this, not floor it.

I agree man. we are on the same page. brake boosting is where it is at when running from a roll. I haven't had the opportunity to try it. When I raced the whipple guy I didn't even know about it. actually, I tried one other time. it was too much boost for the street tires to launch off of brake boosting and just spun.
I have just found if I floor it, it will build faster. I definitely need practice.
