Default LAUNCHING CONTROL.. and red-line

i'm looking to get my car tuned, and i'm trying to get a good ideal of where i should get my 2-step set at. so what would be the best rpm range for the 2-step. i have heard many people tell me 3200 to 3500 rpm. also what would be safe redline on a stock motor when getting the motor tuned?

It depends on what all you have done, the power your making, what tires you have on. You just kind of have to feel it out for yourself. Take it to an empty parking lot one night and just go at for an hr or so. You'll find that sweet spot

What's the point in using a 2 step if you're just going to let it off at 3200 RPM's?
