Icon2 91 civic HB what do i launch at?

Hey guys i have a 91 civic HB si im putting a b16a in it with the following mods
3" intake
4-1 headers 2.5 collector
skunk2 stage1 tuner cams
and tokico blues in the front

i was wondering what i should get my 2 step set at i was thinking 3,500 but i thot that might be a bit high and id get alot of wheel hop the reason im asking and not testing is because im sending my ecu into phearable to get base map and i dont know what to get it set at

and should i set my rev limit to 8,200?

thanks

No, you should not set your rev limit to 8200, that's the redline on that motor. 8500 or 8600 sounds more reasonable to me. As far as a launch control, we really can't answer that.

prob street tires most the time and i dont want to get valve float or whatever cuz im using stock valve train so reving pass 8,200 might be a strain on the motor you think?

if you are leaving on street tires, just leave aggrressively from a red light. chances are you are going to strike the tires anyway.
