What should be 0-60 time with normal start, like in traffic, let's say 2k rpm slip?

I'm getting 6.4 sec. (using DashDyno www.auterraweb.com, it reads speed from ECU) - is it normal or should it be less??

Do 6k rpm dump will shave 1.5 sec from this time?

Car is IX MR 6 speed.

i got 3.9sec when i launch my car

i use a G-TECH, its pretty dead accurate

 

Most Evo's should go 0-60mph in 4.4 to 4.9 seconds stock. You need to get the revs up to get a good time in the Evo.

 

It's because you're lagging. 6.4 sounds normal with a weak launch. Launch it for real and you'll see the 4 seconds that magazines get.

 

its all in the launch. If you launch, you will hit those 4's like previously stated in the magazines. But most of them also do a "street start" which is the more common start people will do. 5-60 I believe was in the mid to high 5 second range for the car. 6.4 is close.

 

6.4 seems a little slow, but its all in how hard your launching it

 

you will know when you have launched your car right.. even in stock form.

 

I also have a IX MR. I have 324whp and 313w torque. I am guessing my 0-60 should be about the same as the BR350 Evo and Buschur rates this one at 3.9 seconds.

I never launch it though, I am afraid to break something. Any car I would be racing would be rear wheel drive and not hook up well either.

 

Yeah the last EVO 9 MR that Road and Track tested in 2006 IIRC was 4.6

 

lol the first time I launched mine at an autocross it scared the **** outa me.

 

so since were on the topic, whats the best tried and true methods to get a good launch time w/o ripping the tranny a new one

 

Slip the clutch is the only tried and true method to my knowledge. You can't "dump" the clutch on the evo, it will just bog down. It's not an RWD car!

 

you hit the 2 step...mine is at 5600... and slip the clutch give it a lil more gas... when the car start moving slip clutch faster... punch it... got me 1.60 60'... i got intake and exhaust

 

so true. Even when I first drove the car winding out 1st gear scared me and that wasn't even launching.

 

just be careful those 5600 launch's , the drive train does take a fair amount of abuse for that
