first time chirping into 2nd

This is the first time I have chirped 2nd I have never experienced this with any awd car. On a side note I love this car, it towers above my e46 m3 (which now collects dust in the garage) in every performace category. truly amazing.

I found this only after moving to the ACT clutch. Much more clamp!

Strangely enough, I did it for the first time yesterday, too. I was still in "race" mode with race fuel and upped boost, then I went to TheSpeedFactor to take the owner for a ride. I never do a full-out 1-2 snapshift unless I'm at the track, so when I did it this time on regular asphalt, it chirped 2nd...impressive indeed.

I used to get the chirp pretty frequently on cooler days.. After I began modifying my car my front right wheel would spin on my "Road tune runs" on a cool night.. Nothing like an 03 with an open front diff..

you can do it stock..it's how you release the clutch sometimes...all just depends. you can usually manipulate the car to chirp..

The only thing I can do is manipulate the car into clunking the rear diff. LOL I don't think it is all that great for it so I try to not do it.
