QUOTE(playr158 @ Apr 7, 2008 - 7:20 AM) [snapback]662138[/snapback] you really have to see what works best for where you are and your car.... you should NOT be just dumping the clutch off the line as well...if you are you'll get into bogging/wheel hop &/or spin. you are going to want to slip the clutch just a weee bit. and I  at anyone who says they can spin 4th gear let alone 3rd (unless you are itchy) SSK doesn't help you make any power either.... yesturday i was playing with the two step and launching  have twostep set at 4.5k right over where the turbo starts to spool up good, i make like 9 psi standing still and the only way to get out of the hole with out completey roasting tire is to killllll the clutch, but man it works pretty good... until the turbo spools to full boost then the tires just break free anyway. wtf, then secound gear. traction for a couple split secounds and once it revs higher it just breaks free till 60mph where im just bouncing off rev limiter till my cars speed matches my speedo speed then i can shift to 3rd lol. need wider tires. or awd. or both. wont be turning the boost up till either of those happen. i dont want my 3rd gear acting like my 2nd gear. -------------------- |
