windshear/TOGA

I should now the asnwer to this already but I want to make sure. You are in a modern Boeing doing a derated thrust takeoff. After selecting TOGA, you see THR REF displayed on your FMA. Soon after liftoff you encounter a windshear and desire maximum available thrust to escape the windshear. To achieve this, you can press TOGA again and now you will have full rated takeoff thrust.

Also, with all systems working and configured nomally what happens during this windshear encounter if you instead push the thrust levers fully forward. Full rated TO thrust which will be the same as if you had pressed TOGA.
