MA91CK billet turbos and weathered engines dont mix Donating Members 1,346 Member For: 12y 11m 29d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 16/05/13 10:25 PM Share Posted 16/05/13 10:25 PM It shouldn't slip mate. Go get your clutch Checked. In all honestly I rekon it's more of a wank factor thing. You cAn launch better without it. If your serious about a good launch and you have sticky tyres, use the throttle/brake launch. Less revs to get off the line, but helps build up a little boost like you would in an auto. Only way I have had a clean hard launch.

The manual does say feathering the clutch or backing off the gas a little is a good thing.

If you dump it at the 3500rpm it's set out, it will just wheel spin.
