Default Re: The launch is what kills our cars.

the funny thing though is we launched at about the same time and with the sudden surge of power on these MTM chip, I pulled away and I thought I would have had him but in 2nd he started coming around and took a little lead. Not until I was in 3rd where I slowly got it back.

I should have told my passengers to step out of the car for a bit.

Default ahhh yes good point, however ive gotten a 1.74 60ft out of my car with a decent not crazy launch

I have to disagree its what kills our cars, yes they are no quarter mile monsters but if you have half a brain and decent driving skills and a decent clutch (100+k on my stock clutch) and it will take a decent launch, Most drivers on the street cant launch worth (rwd fwd) a dam especially a stoplight race were no one is going to spin up their tires (be it they have drag radials slicks).
I will agree these cars go like raped ape in 4th ive ran a couple 11 second cars from a 65 roll messing around on the highway and pull on them decently. and im still mtm1+ stromung catless

Default The K style engines like the ones in the RSX recieve HUGE gains due to bolt ons...

a simple intake can give them an extra 8-10hp. I don't know how, but that's what that engine is known for.
