I only ran 15.7@89.45MPH with stock gears&flaring, majorly screwed up exhaust, dying MAF, Spare removed, 1/4 tank of gas, and about 60 degrees out.
I suspect I'll do a little better next time out. |

I want to run my SVX 5-speed so badly!!! Hopefully I can go sometime real soon.
So ...what should I expect from a 5-speed SVX?

Follow up.
Whats the best way to launch the 5-speed SVX? I tried a clutch dump at 5k or so and the clutch was not very happy. It seemed to like 2,500-3 a lot better and smoother. Any other comments on this?

Best thing to do it pump your tires up to 40psi all around, and try launching at 3.5-4K rpms. That should be enough to spin the tires briefly so that the engine doesn't bog and as little strain as possible will be placed on the trans.
