well i hope i dont wheel hop... 22 slicks, full race traction bar and prothane mount inserts in all 5.
ive never really understood howto pre-load the clutch..can you explain?
ps. you chip crome? i havent decided between crome, neptune, or hondata yet. i guess it depends on what tuner i can find. you know of any good ones around missouri? i live in jeff.

im pretty sure you pull the ebrake up pretty hard, let the clutch out a little bit so that its barely starting to engage. disengage the brake right when you launch. it sounds like it takes a lot of practice, but its worth it. its a lot less harsh on your tranny/drivetrain than sidestepping it off the line. ive never actually done it, so somebody correct me if im wrong.

this is about right. although its alot easier with a staging brake/line lock instead of using the ebrake. ive heard of people disconnecting the button on the ebrake, so it wont get stuck in the up position.

this is a decent starting point, what kinda shape are your suspension bushings in, also what type shocks/spring are you running ?

Yeah I can chip your ECU for Crome or Uberdata as Hondata and Neptune have their own costly installation. They all work the same way so it doesn't matter which program you use in the end. I think we've spoke before, but I tune here. I'll be in STL in 3 weeks for a tuning session with 3 other people. You can join me there or you can come by my place in Rolla anytime.

You should be okay on the street. If you like to run slicks you run a higher risk of breaking axles. What kind of tires are you running on the street?

Re: (mike93boost)
U probably want to get new axles, u might not have that much fun with the stock axles bc u will always be worring about breaking them. You might want to look at drive shaft shop.

Nope, I'm not a dealer. Nor do I want to since the Free software ones do the same thing. Neptune is something I'm looking into though

People run 600HP on stock axles, but if you run slicks on the street with them and have one bad launch then you could pop one
