I launch in 2nd at about 2800rpm, slip the cluch, get rolling and short shift into 3rd. I run 1.8 or 1.9 60ft times!

Some people launch in third but this technique works well for me.

Good luck!

i think 3rd would be too much since you have 35's. either goin to spin or bog. try the technique 4warned suggested.

Third gear with stock turbo and the right tuning shouldent be any problem!
