to avoid wheel hop should i be launching at a higher or lower RPM?

 

i would think lower

 

try slipping the clutch a bit more... bad for the clutch but a bit better for wheel hop on my car.

If you dont like slipping i found higher to be better.

Tried 3k and i would bog. 3.5... bog 4 k wheelhop... 4.5 less wheelhop... 5k no wheelhop but too much wheelspin.

4.5k with a bit of clutch slip and no wheelhop/not much wheelspin and a 2.0 60ft with shitty no name all season tires.

 

and you wonder why your clutch is dead and my is fine. You installed the same clutch after i installed my.

 

ok I get better 60 ft times (2.1 in an NA with just intake and exhaust) when I launch at 6.5k no clutch slip but lots of wheel spin but i guess thats ok with those 60ft times right?

 

what kind of tires are you using?

 

currently bald 205s but i'm getting 245s whenever they get here

 

haha... yah slipping the clutch at the track isnt recommended if you have a stock organic disc and dont feel like doing a clutch job any time soon. I think those launches glazed my disc.

On my NA i would launch at 4.5k on the street and let it spin more because it had no torque... with the t2 setup i have to launch between 3k - 3.5k on the street otherwise 1st gear is just useless wheelspin. The above post was for launching on a much sticker track surface.

 

to avoid wheel hop get a differential brace. revving higher usually helps too.

 

get hevier springs and stiffer shocks....youll get less hop.
