Well you can flash you ECU or you can just learn to launch better. I went off the stock limiter for about 3 months before i flashed. I only bogged it a couple times its all about how you launch.

if your launching technique is to drop the clutch more than slipping it, then you must raise the 2step. of course it risks your tranny more. if i were you i'd slip the clutch more and keep the 2step at 5000rpm. its better to wear your clutch than to break your tranny

All depends on the driver...er and the car, and the tire pressure, and the track....but 5k should get you some low 60s
