launching with bfg's and turbo

Post by redline32 »

Hey guys anyone give me a starting point for a good launch rpm.. Just got set of bfg drag radials and getting ready to put my new pic selects 10/12k on tonight. car is turbo made 293@8 psi on stock motor. Tuned it myself with hondata s300 and wasn't sure where to set launch and full throttle rpm at.. Tried the bfgs with the wifes 400whp civic and they didn't work for her just spun.. hping I can hook with them..

Thanks

Try feathering it out around 5-6k rpms. Air temp, tire pressure, etc. are all factors...youre going to have to play with it.

Im predicting you run a 12.8/9 and cut a 1.9 sec 60 foot or so tho :D Let us know how it went and what technics you used...have fun and good luck!

PS
If the car starts hopping...get out of it!!! Only advise I got for you.
