- yes, it can stall but you can fix this w/ the proper programming
- yes, it sounds like a motorcycle w/ how quick it revs

Chuck just wait till you try the _new_ set up on your car. I drove my RS back to back with yours with the new LWF kit and GT2 clutch conversion and it feels just like my RS- in other words fricking awesome It's easier to feel, modulate and pull away in 1st gear. I'm back to wanting one in my turbo now.

I am running Kevin's 1 Bar program together with Kevin's LWFW / Sach clutch arrangement. It definitely requires a little more concentration moving off the line. The gas pedal is now ultra sensitive….just wants to rev!! No issues with stalling. Yes the LWFW adds mechanical noise once drive train warms up.

In my opinion, the LWFW, specifically the UMW LWFW kit, is how the car should have come from the factory. The noise is nothing to worry about it, and anyone who says it is, is a giant *****. The clutch has a lot more moduality, and rev's faster. When the kit was first installed, my downshift throttle blips were about 1800 rpm too much, if that says anything about the car revving faster.
