Default Launch

At what RPMs do you the 4th gen prelude owners launch at?
I haven't found a good launching rpm.
If too high than I smoke my tires.
Any help will do me good

25-35 is the usual launch.... i found that 35 is too high (smokes the tires) i usually go about somewhere between 25 and 3k

Depends on model, tires, and your technique. I also have an Si, and I hold the revs at 1.6k w/ the clutch barely catching, then drop the clutch and floor it at the same time. Perfect; it just chirps and takes off. Any higher and I burn'em. Oh, and I got my timing advanced a bit, so that gives some more torque, but i'd say higher if you prefer to feather the clutch.
