From a stop if you go WOT you should already spin through first gear.. Unless you have some horrible horrible tires you probably won't be able to get it to spin enough to bounce off the limiter until you get some more mods on it..

Gears would be the best mod to make you have less traction....

You should already be able to, mine will all the way through first and most of the way through second and i have less mods than you do. It probably helps that my tires are mostly bald though

Yup..a Stall with a good hit to it. Just don't wreck..tires tend to catch quick when you are able to bust them loose while moving.

my car will spin the tires in all six gears till redline and i got drag radials on. just joking. but it will spin first to redline and some of second, if i wanted to. i try not to spin them very often though, tires are too expensive for a car i only drive about 5-7000 miles a year.

what tires u have? i have 315 nittos with a cam and suspension, and can barely breakem loose from a 30 punch. Cold weather is a different story. I would say with average street tires, throw a cam in, and you would be good to roast em. I always thought the opposite and wanted not to spin but to hook, so to each his own. im M6 btw

get moving at desired speed, put car in "N" floor gas pedal. After 2 seconds move shifter from "N" to "D" and keep gas floored. You should hit the rev limiter, no problem.

And this is also how to kill your Auto Tranny..

If you want to redline it and drop it into gear..install a good Clutch and a T56.

Sadly, it seems that this is a serious post.

I am also very confused as to why anybody would make this their goal. Threads like this just make me shake my head....

^exactly, I can spin them up to around 85 from a 20 roll on street tires. Power is worthless if you can't hook it, figure out how to NOT spin them at all lol
