When you go over 30psi you'll get a whole lot of lights on your dash along with the 'ASC off' indicator. Your fancy drivetrain features will remain disabled until you shut the car off.

On a hot E85 tune this will get disabled on every drive (like for Dave). What's interesting is that this turned out to be the same fix for MR owners as well. The ECU would stop sending data to the tranny secondary ECUs and that'd cause them to go into limp mode.

The assumption is that this is a safety feature but obviously it was based on the power output capability of the stock turbo at that psi, anyway...
