You can launch in 4 wheel drive, buy you should stay around 10 psi of boost to protect the output and even then nothing is for sure.

The EGT issue is a judgment call. I would worry more about over-speeding the charger with the fuel you're pushing. You have a HY-35 charger so it's going to get hot and the drive pressure will be high too.

10 pounds or less on the launch. Personelly I wouldn't go above 8 pounds on a 4X4 launch since I broke my stock output at 10 pounds but I was running low 13s at the time. Your probably going to be running low 9s or high 8.80s with an 8 pound launch so your only looking at around 5 seconds at the high EGTs.

You might want to try diferent settings on the comp box. Some lower settings my be more agressive because it wont over feul so bad. Try 5x2 4x3 and see what happens.

I go to the one in shelby every once in a while. Havent been since the 370s and the NV-4500. Still working on my shifting. I have got the 2-3 down but I still have problems with the 4-5. Don't think I'll get to 5th on the 1/8 mile anyway but on the factory 180s I was running a 10 at 70 mph.

ok heres how it went first time i evere raced the first time i red lighted bue to building boost and crossed the line and ran a 9.6 68 mph this was comp 5x3 and in four wheeel drive and launched at about 6 psi well next run i got stageing right launched at 8 and everything held and ran 9.2 at 72 mph and comp on 5x5 my reaction time was .410 i dont know if that is reall good but any ways it was great.all i know is that it gets really hot so now iam thinking bigger charger and the bottle!!!but thinks for all the help i will maybe be going back up there next week and working with the lower comp setting!!

i left the line at 10 psi all was okay and then 15psi and then 20 psi and broke the output shaft and it was only 850.00 dollar repair !!! but holly cow was it was fun ....best time was 8.30 in the 1/8 mile.... all because i went on vaction and a friend of mine said lets go to the drag track (and watch) ya right !!
