That way you can easily preserve the optimal rpms -> preserve boost on shifts.

It's called NLS for No-Lift-Shift. You set the RPMS at which you want the car to rev when you are full throttle, but in neutral. This so boost can be maintained while shifting your manual tranny. Nothing new, Vishnu has it for the 335s.
