wow if u really good. it will hit high 13 low 14....(depends on ur psi)
I ran 13.8 w/ 11psi on my old mr2 with a jdm swap....

get off the line...

this will depend on ur tires...and how much is ur psi or boostin

spool the turbo till u hit 3000 rpm or 3500 then wait til the green then step on it!.....
tranny will hold up! 3sgte's tranny is a good transmision!! so it will handle what ever u give!

How did it go? You don't want to wait for the green light. If you leave on it, you're too late (bad reaction time). You probably want to wait for the last yellow and go. You will have some roll out before clearing the stage lights.

plus the car has some inherent "lag" in reaction time as the clutch engages, transmission slack is taken up, etc
