I slip from about 4500-5000 rpms, it works pretty well other than I get some hop sometimes. I have 225 wide tires yeah 225 no typos yokohama AVS ES100s, they grip damn good I just put them on yesterday. I'm not a highly modified car but I feel it come out of the hole quick. I don't pop because I don't want to hop or break ****.

I slip my clutch and launch at about 5K rpms. I run et streets so I get zero wheel hop and hardly in wheel spin. I currently have the ACT street strip disk with the heavy duty pressure plate. When this clutch set-up goes I will switch to the ACT exteme 6 puck set-up.

Yes I have broken axles and destroyed my differential. I now have the kazz diff.

i usually drop it from 4.5k and half throttle it through first and second. Once i hit third i push that peddle as hard as a can and hold on for dear life. Wheel hop is what really kills your differential.

I dunno if it works for the single turbo guys but I can boost out of the hole on two turbos I think. Works well... if I don't hop. I need toe links, trailing arms, and engine torque brace right and I'm set? or what else?
