Default Tc turbo N2MB 2 step testing

Was testing out my two step trying to find the best place to launch on street tires.

I think you'll have to play around with the range of the RPM's on that one. I would guess 3,500 RPM's would be a good start. In my opinion you have to find that "right" sweet spot where it's spinning the tires but no just cooking them and making you have wheel hop.....but on the flip side you don't want it too low where you're just bogging. Keep us informed on how it turns out for ya!

Big Boss what up my ninja!!! Two step working great! You got that no-lift going yet? Haha. You definitely gotta raise that though, sounds like it's dying a bit and no spool, and you didn't have any wheel spin to speak of. I'd definitely turn it up a grand and set it at 3500 and see how that goes, that way your turbo spooling. Update us man.

4k builds about 2-3 psi and blows the tires off. Its really just farting around till I can get to the track. 2500 builds ~1psi lol. Dosent bog much either but it probably will at the track. I haven't wheel hopped since installing the poly mounts ;) by far the best upgrade I have done besides the hair dryer. Next test and tune is another week and a half away :'(

Once you're at the track I think 3,500 RPM's is a good starting point. A prepped surface makes things are A LOT different as I'm sure you're aware already.

I have this too but mine is not working right now since I have an aftermarket steering wheel, and with out cruise control working the 2 step box wont work. But for the streets no more than 3k rpm for launch. At the track I was lanching at 5k rpm only because i was on slicks. I cant wait till i fix the cruise control so that I can use the no lift, that way i can stay on boost. had this for about 3 years now. its been down for 2 years already. gotta get my cruise control back so that it can work again.

Cruise control saves my life! An hour one way to commute for school. Tracked it last night and didnt get squat other than 2500 rpm was launching gravy. It was so busy and the drag strip heroes kept blowing up, I only got two runs in and they both sucked. Pretty ticked because usually I get to pull as much as I want. First run I left it flat too long and it cut ignition into most of first gear. Second run I missed second. Was looking forward to practicing my 60ft with the two step...

Yeah. Glad to see the 3000 or less suggestion worked.

Yup, low launching on street tires is very manageable. I really wanted to practice when to start pulling off the throttle after launch so I dont blow the tires off... maybe 245s on some RPF1s would help

How about them saints man? When are you going to start cheering for BUFFALO, Paul? lol they look great so far. Im hoping Sammy Watkins will help my fantasy team out.
