Ahh im so stoked. ima be launching at 3k and experimenting with shift points. it alsmost seams faster if in third gear, i shift to 4tha t like 4.5k 5.5k rpm. i know the HP peaks at abotu 5.5k, but it seams to pull harder at like 4-4.5k rpm. maby becuase at that point, the boost leak isnt making me run ritch. that could be it...

Doesnt most of the boost come in at like 4.5? and then kind of mellows out by 6?

yea that might work for you but with the stock clutch drop it that high and you will just smoke it

I found that launching from 4k rpm is best, when its when you'll even get some 4 wheel spin, in the dry its best, you get rocketed foward.
