Default track trouble for me...

first run i had severe wheel hop until i had to let off and re-throttle it. i had trouble with these azenis, gotta get used to them. 15.3 @ 91. second run my upper driver side mount exploded at the line, my motor slammed into my cf hood, cracking it, vtec wires and ground wires torn. check engine lights... very upset considering i paid 60 bux to run twice, well actually once, because my second run was a 36.22. any suggestions on how to launch these azenis? i let the pressure down to 22 lbs. any help would be appreciated...thanks

The way I ran them, at the track, was at 18psi and launched at 5500 rpm. You will have to feather the throttle alittle to get them to hook. Once you feel it start to hook up slam the gas. You have to warm them up pretty good though. When they are cold they have alot of wheel hop and don't want to hook. On the streets I do the same thing just launch alittle lower. This is the way I do it, but every driver is different. Hope this helps.
