Don't remember the tests, but I took the urqmonster out 
yesterday with a stopwatch in my hand, level ground,
ambient 60F, max boost 15psi.

gently coasting at 30mph in 2nd
at exactly 30mph, start clock, punch throttle
at 5600rpm shift quickly 2nd to 3rd
at 70mph stop clock

	5.69 sec
	5.74 sec
	5.48 sec

gently coasting at 30mph in 3rd
at exactly 30mph, start clock, punch throttle
at 70mph stop clock

	6.42 sec
	6.47 sec
	6.31 sec
	6.18 sec

How does this compare?
