isnt hitting the rev limiter while launching bad cus ull just spin the tires a lot

like going for 2,400 rpm isnt better?

@MrBeto2020 Launch, while hitting a rev limiter is bad, launch, while hitting 2 step rev limiter is better, because is controllable. You need to spin your tires a little bit, if you want a good start. Launching at 2400rpm, your engine would probably "choke", because traction is too good (on dry tarmac). Actually I don't use my LC at all on dry asphalt recently, I don't want to change more clutch discs, but I like LC on wet/icy/snowy surfaces verys much! It gives me quick and easy launches:)

What's the reasoning for having a 2 step rev limiter? Don't read this as sarcastic, purely just trying to find out.

[dolphinLT]

@op3l Reason is a good launch.

@CEONER85 i didnt know about the 2 step when i commented, now i know :)

@MrBeto2020 lol for turbo cars rev limiter is better than not having it, and i dont think you'll have to worry about tire spin on an evo at launch, and NO tire spin is not good at all your losing traction instead of putting the power straight down to the ground..

[CEONER85]

@op3l reason is your fooling your turbo to thinking your maxing out your motors rev limit so your turbo will spool up giving you almost full boost going 0mph/kph basically giving you as much power to prevent turbo lag and such at launch, thats why turbo drag cars always have 2 step... hope that helps.

@MrBeto2020 ehh youre right, but 2400 wont build any boost. redline can damage your axels. thats why my buddy has hit set to 4900...that way its fairly low revs and it builds enough boost to pull hard

[DaZedGamingHD]

@op3l Its so u can build up turbo boost while the clutch is in still so when u pop/slip/drop the clutch, u will already have high boost.

@dolphinLT oh ok

thanks
