What does that do? basically when you are in gear and clutch pressed in it revs and holds at 5500k rpm?

Alright guys.
I had 3 hours driving time on a manual before I got the X. I was the epitome of self doubt. Anyway, got in a fight with the gf one night, was pissed, drove the X cause it relaxes me. Found myself on a wide open completely empty flat road.
So I held in the clutched, floored it, when it hit 5500rpm the 2 step did its job and held it there. I then released the clutch, pretty quick but not super fast, and the car took off like a bat out of hell. It was the coolest feeling.
Anyway, all my point is: grow some ***** and go do it. It's super easy and super fun. Trust me, you can't **** up and its hyper easy.

Never launched nor will I, clutch replacement can't be cheap on a awd I'd imagine?

AWD has nothing to do with the price of a clutch. ACT and AGP are selling them in the $580 range. That's pretty reasonable if you ask me. Regardless, to each is their own.
That's hilarious. It surprises the hell out of you once you get it right. I can't rock out the 5500rpm launch or I smoke the clutch, but I'm making 24 P.S.I. at 5500rpm which is playing a big factor.

Doubt it.
