Default full boost launch with stock axles?

im going to the track on saturday with my crx gsr sc61. i have 240whp with 6.8psi.

im running hondata stage 3 so i can do full throttle launches and shifting. got a set of lensos and MH 23x8-13".

i wanted to put in a 10psi WG spring and shoot for 11s but I dont know about the stock autozone axles. Will I be towing it home? Should I let off the clutch easy and full throttle it the rest of the way?

Any little tips? I will be driving it there and back. Thanks.

you wont build any boost with hondata's 2 step.......and i launched at 15psi of boost and 500+ horsepower on stock axles ALL season....and 2 previous years as well........its all going to depend on how YOU launch it. i always use stock oem honda axles from a junk yard.......not remanufactures axles.

hope this helps

Preloading is key in Drivetrain longevity . I've always used stock axles here (mostly auto zone reman's).

There's alot of threads on here on how to do it properly so research and I also have a vid of a driver preloading properly if you'd like it. Just PM me your e-mail addy.

Type that into the search function. Not being an ***, I just know for a fact stuff will come up. I've explained it 20-30 times on here. Also, to all that PM'd about the vid I'll have those e-mails out about lunch time today

FYI: i my car built 5-8psi of boost off hondata two step launching at 7000rpms on stock axles on 24.5x8.5x15in tires. just because its a fuel cut, doesn't mean a turbo won't spool, you won't get antilag results from pulling timing and getting crazy boost amts, but you still get enough to get you moving. set your 2 step high at first, then work it down, if you come out of the hole spinning, its better than bogging.
