Question Awww heck! I need some AWD launching advice.

admin- I didn't know where to put this because it does really fit any kind of tech category or pavement drag racing.

I feel stupid for asking but the car isn't going to the track until i can launch it. I'm too used to my old GST launching. I have a '99 GSX that i'm having troubles launching big time. I have my 2step studder box in dsmlink set for like 5600rpms. I tried just dumping it right off the floor and it bogs it terrible right down into the low 2k rpm range. I also tried letting clutch out some just to where she starts to grab and then dump it, same crap. Boost is at about 16psi for now because our 93oct. fuel sucks. 50trim turbo, etc. Ideally, you'd never want your rpms to drop below your studderbox level. I lose 2 seconds easily. I thought about 1 thing on the way home to add to this post. Over the winter i put in an entirely new clutch system, master, slave, clutch, SS line. My clutch disengages now probably 2+ inches off the floor. Last year when i first got the car i had problems with the clutch disengaging almost right off the floor, maybe 1/2". That's why i put all new in. Turns out the master was bad. Would you guys think that 2" would cause my launching problems? And where does your clutch disengage approx, off the floor ??
