Default Question about Launch control program on ECU (Mugen N-1)

Here is situation, I am getting a PM7 ECU programed with Mugen N-1 program and it has a launch control option I need to specify. Car is basicly street driven, amy see a few track runs. I am running 205-50/15 tires (plan to get Aziens soon) It will NEVER see slicks. I have ZC engine with ZC trans, Header, 2 1/4 catback, cold air intake, What is a good rpm to have launch control set to. This is activated by simply depresssing clutch, I need to know today so don't have weeks to figure this out myself. Was asking for help of some of you who may be using this. Advice?

Well the only way to figure out is to go to a track and try. It's going to very with differnt tires, differnt clutch, differnt tracks. You can't just go out on the street and do it. If it's not a changable one then don't get it. Just buy the MSD 2-step and a bunch of pills.

I can drop my car @ 6,000 rpm which stock clutch and azenis @ 18psi and pull 2.0's. I doubt i'll be able to do this once the ACT's in meaning i'll probably have to drop the revs a little.

Well what I might do is pick a high rpm that won't affect anything, I am after the ECU and the Mugen maps, this option I really could take or leave. But it comes with it. I understand what you mean as far as optimum goes. But track testing isn't an option due to time. Was hoping someone by luck was running the same setup I have. I will need a clutch upgrade before I do much track running because the POS Borge Warner clutch I have isn't doing a very good job. At about 4,500 in second I get a solid enough hookup that the clutch goes bye-bye and slipps like a mother (full throttle acceleration). Thats on the list for this summer, damn shame its NOT worn out. Just crappy. ZC with bolt ons (no Nitros) should not overpower a 212mm Oem style clutch.

Guess my best option is ask to see if I can have the A/C cutout instead of this and if I can't pick a High rpm like over 4,500 so it doesn't really affect me. This is a daily driver.
