You need a Tranny to be boost launching! But if you wanna take the chance, then put it in 4wd HI and Hold the Accelerater and Brake at the same time like doing a burnout. But Ease into the accelerater and don't smash on it or it takes time to build boost or you will just snap something.

left foot on the brake-right foot on the throttle till you achieve the level of boost you want then simultaneously left foot off the brake and right foot ON the throttle hard

just be very careful when doing boosted launches if you don't have a FULL BILLET transmission-it tends to break things LOL:yourock:

There are alot of factors that effect boost building at the line..

how tight/loose your converter is
If the low-end fueling is on with your BD
how big your turbo is

Most of the time when staging at the line, you should be able to build sufficient boost before you hit 2K rpm's, if your just looking to get it above 2K, then might look into a looseer conveter.

For best results, don't do this.



WOW, now that is a really clean break! Did you damage anything else? Sorry to see that, but a beautiful paper weight if anything...:yourock:

how much boost is too much on a stock truck when launching. I went to the track and launched as high as 15psi in 4hi
Basically any. 15 psi is pretty high i wouldn't do that again, its just very hard on the torque converter/shafts etc. your input could easily end up like BBrams, which usually trashes your tc at the same time.
