Feather the clutch a bit when you launch it. Dont just drop your clutch but let out on it nice and evenly as you apply the throttle..... or practice till you find the right RPM where you can dump the clutch and only get minimal wheel spin. Either way. lol

Kick the 2 step up to 6000 rpms, dump the clutch and hold on.

I love mine so far.. its cheap power.. keeps the temps nice and cool when on boost. As long as the pump works fine your good... but you can say the same thing about your oil pump really.. lol

I wish I could do that Really it's easier to show someone than to tell someone how,it's just a matter of the right throttle application and feathering the clutch.Rpm's also make a big difference,try launching a different rpms,it's something that takes some practice.If you don't have D.Rs,get some,they make it somewhat easier.
