I keep hearing people say that they increase boost at the line or at a stop to get quicker take off.
Can this only be done on a auto trans or can it be done with maual trans. How ido you icrease boost?

Very first diesel truck

truck in first or 2nd, foot on clutch just at the point b4 it grabs......foot on the gas and bring the rpm's up...light goes green foot to the floor and pop the clutch

You will want to have an aftermarket clutch if you try this too many times. Especially if you are running more than stock power.

It is much easier to do with an auto. trans. All you have to do is brake stand it until you reach the desired boost level then let off the brake, and smash the go pedal.:cool:

I have the same problem off the line too. If i do a boosted 2wd launch all i do is roast my tires into drive:ro)

4x4 work 3 pedals at once one for gas and break other for clutch let out on clutch hold break apply gas slip or slide coutch and add more gas why holding break

Thanks for the replies, I think Iwill keep my tires new.

If you launch in 4x4 you won't spin'em off the line.
