Re: Weak Takeoff Reply #1 – June 27, 2005, 03:11:00 PM Again....http://www.turboford.orgThey are dogs out of the hole unless you slip the clutch a bit to build some boost off the line. Go to the sites I posted in your other thread.....there's info here. Not too many TC guys here... Quote Selected
Re: Weak Takeoff Reply #2 – June 27, 2005, 04:42:48 PM well you are trying to move a 3600 lb car with a 4 cyl. Until the turbo kicks in, its not going to move that well. Quote Selected
Re: Weak Takeoff Reply #4 – June 27, 2005, 06:07:13 PM Bring it to 3500 and drop the clutch. That should take care of your launch issues. :) Anyway, it's called boost lag. Until the turbo kicks in, you're just driving a boat with a low compression fourbanger. Quote Selected
