ur foot on d gas pedal
yeah traction was n issue wit me so i tink it definitely gonna affect u too.this is wat i did to get a much better launch
1.let almost all d air out of d front tires wen goin to run.
2.stiffen d back springs.
3.kept a friend in d front passanger seat which provides more weight on drive wheel cars already light
4.launch at bout 2500rpm netin higher i was just wheel spin rock first gear at half throttle, 2nd gear a lil mor gas n press out 3rd n 4th n if i had to throw 5th couldnt speed cut
5.got a big arse heavy battery n kept it over d drive wheel.d battetry was as heavy as d bare 4e block
i installed d stock boost controller wit my T25 set up i was gettin bout 9psi low boost n 15+ psi high boost wit fuel cut removed. if u proberly put a tee fittin in d line to d actuator u mite sneak in an extra lb or two more of boost. |
