I used to drive a 05' mustang gt lots of upgrades, i used to launch at 1450 and just dump the clutch, but wit my evo i know u dont launch like that, so i was wondering wat u guys launched at, and if u just dumped the clutch or evened it out or wat u did?

 

5500 rpm. "slip the clutch", NEVER drop it, if you dump the clutch, you better get the checkbook ready. Gets costly. Don't you have a built in 2 step?

 

i had my evo for 2 days, all i put in it is a hks BOV, after it breaks in a little ima start droping in parts, i was just curious at what the people who drove evos for awhile launch at, thanks for the reply

 

OH built in.. i dont know to tell u the truth, i just got the evo because of the potential and the drive, i dont really know alot about them, im a muscle car guy, i just know muscle, im doing my research to get to know these imports more.

 

with my 05 i had launch i think at 5k stock. now its just under 6 and yes dont drop the clutch

 

i think you have built in launch control. just push down your clutch and have the stick in 1st gear and floor it. see where it is at. dont go past 7k though. that means you need a reflash

 

so should i just ease of the clutch, or go quickly, or make it even or wat? thanks for the advice guys

 

6500, 1.6x short times all day =p

 

these numbers seem so high, theres no burnout? im not saying i dont trust u guys kuz i do, but it seems weird to me, guess i just gotta get used to it

 

you have to launch awd cars differently. you dont just dump the clutch. you have to kind of slip it or feather it. i dont really know how to explain it in words very well. im a bit out of it right now...

 

i say just practice it and figure it out. you'll get it after a while. just burn that stock clutch cuz its no good any way then get a new aftermarket one

 

thank you guys for all the help, it gave me a good place to start at, good nite fellas thanks again payce

 

the awd world doesnt really know what a burnout is. launch no higher than 5500 because thats where the stock revlimiter is for launch control, if the clutch is fully engaged. you wont ever do a burn out in an evo. with mods and a good launch you will have minimal tire spin.

 

6500 rpm, and just let it out evenly but kinda quick....my times below are a direct result of that method.....

 

if your not spinnin the tires then your not launching to full potential. I pull 1.6's all day with a good amount of tire spin
