762x39 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I've got a pretty decent stage 2 05 OBXT 5EAT. Heres what it has: GrimmSpeed TMIC, Invidia Down, GrimmSpeed UP, Hexmods VB, 3port BCS, 3" Catback, Protuned by Ray Arroyo - 235 whp, 299 wTq. Tell me everything you can about launching this car. I haven't ever done anything more than a mild 900-1000 RPM brake boost. Some days its quick, some days its not. Tell me: -How to yield a good 1/4 mile time if I so choose to track it for a day -What will cause destruction of it -the sweetspot RPM -the sweetspot "SAFE" RPM if its possible -Any tips and tricks of the trade or anything else you guys know Thanks!

whitrzac Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Trans cooler? Brake boosting generates a lot of heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starionesir Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Do not brake launch the car unless you have upgraded the diff bushings. You will destroy the diff. Hexmods offers them and a couple members here do as well. I think frankster still offers them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

battelready Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Dont risk it. Youll get away with the first one but after that youll either grenade the diff or break something in the tranny. I bought an auto be more involved in my uninvolvedness . 200k+ Club If you can't blind them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit. My high mileage turd.
