Default good launch?

would it be better to launch by reving to 2K RPM, and dumping the clutch(spall chirp). OR rev to 3k RPM and feather the clutch(small chirp little more that 2K launch). Ill get a small chirp either way, which would be better?also Ill spin too much if I rev to 2500 rpm and dump.

Hmm...well with launching, there isn't really a exact way how to do it...just gotta try all methods and see what you like...IMO...but there might be some others on the boards that have some good ideas

IF YOU STILL HAVE YOUR STOCK T-5 I WOULD NOT DUMP TO HARD, IF YOU HAVE A AFTERMARKET TRANNY DUMP IT HARD 4-5000 HAVE FUN YOU HAVE A SUBFRAME

Will reving to 2000 rpm and droping the clutch hurt a stock trans? what would give me a lower et
reving to higher RPM and dropping the clutch or launching at lower rpm and dumping the clutch?
I would burn out alot if I rev high and dump the clutch. Ill do a chirp if I rev to 2000rpm and dump. which is better for a faster ET.
