Its difficult to get it right....not enough and it just bogs down and you go nowhere...too much and you still go nowhere...just sit on the line spinning!

The DCCD on mine helps a lot with the launches....gives it more grip

I usually sit at about 5-5.5k...but even then its still a hit or a miss

Just need to practice until you get whats best for your car

Do you really think all these scoob owners would be trying to launch at 6k if it was pointless?
Its a bit different from you launching your 1.2 8v at 6k.

Best to hold at 5.5k and keep blipping up to 6k so when you launch you dont lose too many revs. Similar to how race bikes set off.

set on the apexi to 7k, anything above that is pointless, the 8k rev limit on STi's is just for show, crazy japs

Have exedy racing clutch, lightened flywheel, and reconditioned STi V5 type R box, so hopefully the transmission can take the odd bit of abuse
