Bad Launch, non-oem turbo

Post by vipersal »

Hi,

I have a RDX 2011 with Flashpro, I made a tune that feels good with 16psi with a new turbo.

My problem is on Launch, before the turbo change and everything the car launched good at 2500 rpms, now the car dies at 2500 rpms, Is there any way to raise the launch rpms a little with the flashpro ?

You can make changes in the rev limits section of the calibration window.

Sorry, I forgot to mention a small detail, the RDX is automatic.

Those Launch Control settings only works in neutral.

I would not recommend trying to launch an automatic is you will most likely damage the transmission.

I know that, I don't want to launch at 5k, lol, My question is more focused to know if the flashpro can raise that rpms to 3k or how can i get a better launch.

That does not make sense, based on what you just said.

Thanks for trying to help me,
I will write my question in another way. lol

The RDX is automatic, and the launch on "D" is poor because I can only got 2,000 rpms, Is there any way to increase that rpms to 3,000 on "D" ?

My logic said that is a Stall Converter limit, But before of the turbo change, I was launching at 2,500 rpms.

"launch Control" in Hondata is not doing anything because the car dont pass from 2000 rpms in "D"
