My launch is perfect, I take right off the line but as soon as I go into boost, even with boost by gear, the damn thing immediately hits redline, shift, immediately redline, 3rd is at least worth something and I get moving, but after all that power, I’d still be slower off the line than my c8 and my buddies stock supra. As soon as I go full throttle it’s immediate redline. If you try to feather it, you’ll them lose boost. I don’t get it
I have the MT super streets, 305/35/18, they are aired down to 27 cold, (originally I thought I went 24 but checked them after the run and they were cooled down) wondering if I should go lower but can’t imagine that’ll make THAT much of a difference. I did a burn out to heat up the tires, then did my launch, maybe just too cold outside? It was in the 50s when I tested this out.
Wanted tonight to boost my confidence in launching and rolling through gears, instead it did the opposite  I love her, but damn man tonights one of those where you're just down in the dumps :/ |
LOL We are in the same boat. Gotta dial in the suspension. I was going to Motec to help with this but it appears it may be a while longer until I do that. 720whp is where my car was best. I feel the same. You have to work your butt off in the drivers seat. Try 900whp, that is wild. The car is constantly trying to kill you. When it is below 80 deg, forget it. I have a new set of 325/30/19's going on when it gets warm. I need to finish getting my 17's for the rear. Going to a MT Street R 305/45/17. They will only be on the car when needed to prevent heat cycling them out.
