I used to launch at 7000rpms and 7200rpms, This was with a B16A that made 321whp and 276 ft-lb torque got consistent low 1.7s and once a 1.67 60', I know jinxproof was launching at 8k rpms on some 25x8.7x13s M&H also. Good luck.

 

like boostfed said, try between 7000-7500 playing with tire pressure between 6.5 lbs and 8.5 lbs. depends on the track, your clutch, and your driving. slip the clutch alittle, don't dump it.

 

wow 7500k, i dont want to shear my axles right off.
changing them at the track will suck hard.

 

seems like 24.5/8.5 is over kill for a car making only 324hp, even if you launch high, im sure youll get some crucial bog before that boost spools in.

 

i asked all the big time front drag people, they ALL told me 24.5"
thats how i chose.

NOPE never bogged a bit, the 22's were too small would have to go into 5th gear and would shred through 1st and 2nd gear. The 24.5s were definately helpful when I switched to them. IMO

 

allrighty then.. ill just stick to NA cars

 

Hay bigstatik; let me know how you do. John@M&H

 

thanx john! hehe, it might not be till next sunday, just tried fitting them on the car.
they dont fit, the car will need to come up, ordering some ground controls.

They were in the packing slip with your tire sheet?

a few years ago i was running about 360 hp and 275 tq to the wheels with stock oem gsr axles. ran 100's of passes lasting an enitre year without breaking 1 axle. 24.5 slicks @ between 6.5 - 8.0 lbs of air. clutchmasters stage 4 and quaiffe. do not be scared.

i would never tell someone on here to do something i haven't done myself.

 

I ran last friday with 20 psi 20.0x8.0x14 MT and was launching at 5000 - 5600 and a 1.9 60ft, it came out of the whole like a freek, play with the RPM and psi, do a couple of runs and change the set up a little to see what's a better 60ft time. GL have fun.

 

thanx for all the answers! cant wait to see what it does. (my car is not a she, its an it)
