Default Launch question....

don't really know about the effects of different launch rpm in a automatic car. but here we go...

i have a bolt on TP4400 convertered car.

This sunday, i would stall up my car to about 1500 and hit it and i would get mid 1.5 60fts. and i was running 11.7's.

NOW.... if i raised that launch rpm up to like 2000-2500, and i still could hit a mid 1.5 60ft, what would be the effects of that? would I e.t. any quicker, mph any more? thanks for any help!

I think if you can stall it up higher, you will 60ft even better.

I don't have that converter, but I would stall it up until you blow the tires off, the take it down a notch.
