2010 evo x sst will not launch after tune ?

So I have a 2010 evo x se and when I first got the car I was able to launch it and it worked perfectly fine. now i have a few bolt ons tbe intake and 3port and an etune and now the car will not launch I followed all the steps turning traction control off ayc off and stomping on the brake having the sst in s-sport mode and punching the gas the rpms will hold like normal but when I let off the brake the car starts to launch then skips into neutral and it's says slow down on my dash. Could my tune be preventing me from launching ?

I bet you didn't know that more power than stock level breaks launch control....

So basically soon as you get more HP out of your car you can no longer launch it ?

I recently ran an 11.7 quarter mile in my MR with 20G compressor upgrade so it's all about the tuning.

1.71 short times too!

I did the exact same thing.
You have to floor the gas quick & the second it hits 5k off you go.

I almost missed second it was so quick from 1-2 shift.
