Default Boss Track Key

This may be a dumb question but I'd regret not asking if something bad happened so here goes.

My boss is currently my daily driver. Can I use the track key all the time or should I use it sparingly?
The dealer was adamant that it was only for track days and wasn't to be used all the time.
Thanks in advance

Drove mine on trackey all the time before I did the headers and tune. Makes the car more fun to drive for sure. Really fun when I take the tune out and run it.

You can use the Trackey as much or as little as you like. I don't daily drive mine but just going out for some "throttle therapy" I use it, for longer trips or if I know I will be in any stop and go traffic I use the silver key, the engine braking is pretty aggressive with the trackey.

I drove it all day today with the track key. The engine braking is much more aggressive and pulling out is much more aggressive. The throttle response is crazy. Thanks for the input!

Did you purchase the track tune? You know that track key you get with the car does not have track key tune. The Track Key performance pack from FRPP has paper work on driveability. When they first came out it was 8,000 track key miles then warranty is over, however I understand now Track Key tune has no affect on warranty coverage.

I have the track tune and the lopey idle is awesome. I think I'm going to remove the side pipe baffles tomorrow. I didn't see anything about track key in my warranty
