Need help with turbo lag
Need help with turbo lag I have a T76GTQ, M6, built 347 9.0 to 1 compression made 584RWH and 627RWT. I am needing help with turbo lag from take off. My 60 foot time sux. Any where from 2.33 to 2.43 which sux bad. Stock my car would run 2.0's 60 foot need to get it down. I have stock rear on street tires. I am not spinning it's just bad sluggish. I launched at 4500 for my best 60 of 2.33.
EESH man, those 60's are terrible. Are you dumping it then trying to take off, or what is going on? I know on mine, after the turbo, I would run it to about 3500, then slip the clutch progressively as I put the hammer down... That was on the street, and I was able to build boost relatively quick, even with the 4.10's and the rear-mount T70. I wouldn't imagine you would have near 2.5 second 60's in a car like that. Might need to run it off a 2-step to give the turbo a head start.
Dude, something is seriously wrong if you're on a set of hard street tires and you can't spin them with a 6 speed. Are you running a 2.73 gear or something? How are you leaving the line? You may not even NEED a 2-step, but it is recommended on manual cars with a built rear end, sticky tires and lots of traction to fire out of the hole. A car with nearly 600 rwhp and over 620lbs torque BETTER spin stock style tires. A cutout will help, but not as much as you're looking for. I am curious to see your answer, so I can make a recommendation, but something is seriously wrong if you're bogging THAT bad off the line.

Something is strange then, 4500 and slipping it... with that much power, you have at least a stage 3 (spec 3, ram 3, whatever) clutch right? I cannot see how you leave at that rpm and can't build boost quicker, and/or leave the line hard, or enough to spin the hell out of those street tires...

Verdad Gallardo Something isn't adding up... Sorry, didn't see that in your sig. Your 60' isn't going to affect your mph as much as your ET. 111 at 1000 isn't bad, what was it at 1320? You're making the power, but if you aren't 120+, something is wrong there even, with nearly 600 rwhp.
not true, especially in a turbo car... LOL. I can leave the line like **** and still run like a bat out of hell. You'll see a lot of turbo cars set up incorrectly running mid 12's at 125mph+ with over 2.0 60' times. 2 step it will get you up on power therefore giving you better mph and ET if you can put it to the ground.
Sounds like it could be a tuning problem.Probly made great #'s on the dyno but knocking like hell on the street?A friend has the same type of setup and it hauls *** out of the hole with 1.6 60's and full boost at 3000rpm. Just sounds like a tuning/mechanical problem to me.
