Guest genie Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 gota TT converted to a large single, meaning spool time is slow and turbo kick in at 4700+ rpm :-/ PLUS the hard challenge to do a good launch in a AUTO i REALLY like the combination of auto and big turbo, WHEN the car is up in the sweetspot, because the faster shifts and therefore less lag between gears. BUT how do a get a better 0-60 launch ? what is the trick ?? any "good ideas" i tried would either kill my clutch or my brakes!! i cant REV the engine and let off the clutch like i would prefer ofcause ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT how do a get a better 0-60 launch ? what is the trick ?? Is it a stock auto box, what stall have you got installed and are you power braking?

AndyT Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 High stall box is the only way to get it mate. You need to be able to cover the brake whilst revving to spool time. = fast launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Get a more suitable turbo If thats the one I think it is, it's complete crap. Then a high stall TC Then traction control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
