I start around 2500 rpms and roll into it as I let out the clutch. Boost and power are immediate. Boosted launches are only good for starting burnouts with my rwd.

You can build boost just as a DD can, BUT it will be a very limited number of times. And that is only because you have a single disk, as do I. I have done a few 3rd gear boosted launches (15-18PSI) and quite a few 2nd gear launches and my ValAir is holding like crazy still but I will eventually get a DD.

Well I just ordered the 3600 Sprung Hub from Peter this morning! Is anyone running the sprung hub? How much nicer does it drive than the regular 3600? I can't wait to get it! I'm gonna run the stock hydraulics now until that dies and then upgrade.

Well....got the DD 3250 w/spring hub installed this morning. It is a awesome clutch....unbelievably smooth compared to the LUK cerametallic that it replaced. I only put 20 miles on it today & it is already starting to feel like a stock clutch. The pedal is a little stiffer than a stocker, but smooth to engage. Thanks Peter!
