It's a five-speed Automatic that also has like flappy-paddle select like race-car. Gearchange is steering-wheel mounted if you want to use it so not really separate paddles but close.
It also has LSD because trying to be race-car with 190kW. Feels like a Sports car and drives nicely. I just bought it to try to improve the fuel economy tbh and add turbo. It's booked in for Track days in August and September.
Before I do the Turbocharging I'll run some tests with simple Water-Injection. I checked out it's Sensors yesterday which include an AirFlow sensor which would be all I would need to calculate water-flow. I then just need to find the IAT sensor and hook into that.
