WRX_Dazza

pezzza

LOL....ok 4000 then, and then smell Mr Clutch burning!

WRX_Dazza

My launch control is set to 4200rpm, I might use it but I need to investigate the cut off MPH.

WRX_Dazza

just dump the clutch and you'll smell rubber, not clutch!!!! lol (or gearbox bits clanging about)

pezzza

I will re-raise you ALL IN!

pezzza

Dumped the clutch a few weeks ago, all i got was a "orrible" smell of clutch for the rest of the day.

Still trying to get the wheels smokin.........

Save your money for tyres

And some other mods, before going launch control route.

You are probably still running a TD04 turbo ...... Get that changed, some decent injectors (STi pinks for example), fuel pressure reg, uprated fuel pump and an STi top mount intercooler.

And then a remap

then you could do with changing from those standard brakes and wheels .....

Shall I stop now ?

pezzza

ok, i get the hint, will do other mods first, then do the launch!

You only really need launch control if sprinting or doing drags is your thing.

Id strongly recommend a twin plate aswell seen as though the standard won't last too long with it.

Its very harsh on the transmission too.

As per OP

Launch control is mapped in, it sets your revs to an agreed amount, normally 5k, you floor the gas and will not go over that set amoutn of revs, you then get the biting point and away you go, on strokered cars the torque pull is amazing, last week in my mates 550hp Evo 5 rs it made my mind go blurry...lol.. when he set off, the pull was that strong.

pezzza

The only pull i have experienced that is anything likr that was a full throttle take off from 4 rolls Royce Olympus 593's with afterburners going!

im about to book my car into extremescoobies with clutch/gearbox problems all because of launching the bloody thing

pezzza

so thats a definate "dont get launch" on my scoob then?

JimmyBFC

You ideally need uprated stuff to cope with the stress on transmission and clutch, gearbox if you are going to do it regualry, im having it set up on mine, wher eit will be launched a good few times durng a days sprinting, hence, the twin plate clutch, but nothing lasts forever.

If used sparingly, it should probably be ok.
