How can I tell if Sport Chrono Overboost Works?

Umm... you still have to look at the tach to know when to switch gears? I'm with the other guy, when the pedal is down my eyes are on the road, my ears let me know when to shift.
I can't imagine going WOT in a car with twice as much power as mine and taking my eyes off the road for a split second.

Just like 2K7997TT said, get on the freeway or any other open road, get up to 50-60 in 6th gear, mash it. Don't worry, even 480 HP is not going to get out of your control. Under such a load, the turbos should try to spool up maximally and you should notice the little up arrow.
If you have any concerns, let the dealer check it out for you.

As for me, and most others not schooled in the ways of the Jedi master-Mazda, I need to check my RPM gauge now and then. I think that may have been on Porsche's mind when they put it in the center and made it larger than the rest of the gauges. Leave it to Porsche to design a car for those of us with fewer metachlorians.
But I would never seek to defy your Jedi greatness . . .The force will be with you, always.
