Going by that you should be able to do it with tc off as it doesnt say full throttle it just says apply some and get it to the point where the ecu holds the rpm. So if you use your throttle foot correctly ya wont be burning out ya clutch.

I read somthing about the manual FG Turbos haveing Launch COntrol. Somthing like in first with the clutch in, floor it and the computer will hold it at 3000rpm, then drop the clutch and the compyter will doo the rest? Fact? Fiction? how do you use it? DSC on or OFF?

It really just holds revs at 3500rpms and when you release clutch it has restricted boost/power for take off.. You have to work out the correct rate to release your clutch, too soon and you will fry the rears, ride it too much and you will cook your clutch and have that lovely burnt clutch smell! There is definitely an art to the method and it requires a bit of driver ability

Personally I wouldn't use DCS with the launch control take off's

I found my stock clutch (with stock F6 power at the time) useless after one launch and trying to back it up 3 minutes later.. Not sure if the XR6T's have the same clutch?

the launch control holds the revs while you hold the throttle flat to the floor ! only lifts revs onec clutch moves ! it works well... just need to know how to use it right ! dumping it will obviously engage the traction control so best to turn that off or use traction control and learn good clutch control ! that's the 2 basic options for decent launch ! the video shows it works well !
