launch

[Soyo]

anyone have some tips on hooking up the tires on a good launch? the high 200's I have is way different than the 160 I had with the NA and the boost just makes it that much more confusing

I haven't practiced it much either so obviously that matters but I'll get around to that soon enough haha

start just past the torque peak?

how is your car in the high 200's?

u need a clutch, a flywheel
coil over, springs and shock, sway bars, camber kit,
a full stand alone, some FD wheels with spacers,
also need to get rid of that T2 hood and swap an aluminium n/a one, and get a fluydine rad and a fmic, but not a big one, its overkill, a small decent one do the job very well.

dude he's asking how to launch his car.

call me overly skeptical but i dont see how you are in the high 200s with those mods.

I don't have money to throw tons of stuff onto this car, I have money to upkeep it and maybe put in a radiator next month or so but besides that I just want to learn how to drive it like I could with my NA... I don't know my exact HP and I don't want to waste money on a dyno so forget about that... I'm sure I have over 250 though but it doesn't really matter I just need some tips on launching from some other people with TII's...

Hey dumbass The turbo II hoods were aluminum and if he was to have the money to do this F*ck a front mount <V-mount

[drftk1d]

[Turbo II-FB]

get in the kitchen, take a chill pill, a good glass of water, then a deep breath. hahahaha, seriously man, relax

v-mount or front mount, its quite a close call, and a v-mount will cost a bit more money and need more fab, and anyway, its a matter of taste, just like i dont like the scoop on the T2 hood, wich is why i proposed to change the hood...

How about we tone it down a bit? No need to start calling people dumbasses, and get all pissy.

I just rev to about 4k and then start feathering the clutch.. Bagged me a 1.8 60 ft.

[D3rELiC]

your thread is all broken now, because of the 1st gen guys

[Soyo]

my hood is aluminum and I like the look of the TII hood, unfortunately that doesn't matter because this thread is about launching!

thank you J-rat for a real answer, I was hoping I'd hear from you in this thread... I will test that method out... if anyone else has any information that pertains to launching then post

to the rest of you, stop arguing about things I can't afford because it really doesn't matter

I lauch around 4-5k because of my torqueless mofo. and i get a pretty good lauch out of it, without spinning too much the tires.
