Thumbs up HELP...with first turbo

When i launch my car it doesn't seem to pull out of first gear as hard as it seems.I hit about 11 - 12 pds of boost .Occasionally, it will launch hard and other times it doesn't.

You're probably getting a crapload of wheel spin, or burning out your clutch... The FD rx7 isn't exactly the fastest thing off the line. It really picks up in 2nd+ though. Remember, even stock you're putting probably about 220 horses to the rear wheels in a pretty light car... Unless you have badass tires they're not gonna stick well.
