From Mopar site, under S2 features:
"• Boost hold feature during WOT shifts. Keep the pedal to the metal, blip the clutch, and grab the next gear. Do it fast enough before the redline, and your reward will be a zero-lag, constant boost shift. "
I found this to be true with SI on my PT 5spd. After I installed my boost gauge I took it out and flogged it pretty good to see what boost #'s I was getting. When shifting normally I was getting 11 psi but when I speed shift boost holds 13 psi, cool! However it still starts to bleeds off around 5k rpm.

Has anyone set their traction control light on when slipping the clutch? I was cruising in 2nd gear at maybe 2k and did the ole'slipp and rev (it takes off like a rocket and seems to hold boost through all the gears, not good for the clutch though) and bam the traction control disengaged and the light stayed on, could not switch it on at the switch either. Cycled the key a few times and it reset?
