Launch Control X5M
I'm curious as to see if anyone else running a tune(stage 2+) and catless downpipes are able to effectively use their launch control without any issues...my main problem since installing the tune is even with new cross drilled rotors and a new set of brake pads(OEM), while attempting to use launch control the brakes are not holding the truck in place...the truck keeps lurching forward...too much hp/torque???
I'd like to try and resolve this issue so I can use the launch control at the drag strip in the near future...any advice is greatly appreciated |

I pressed the brake pedal as hard as I could down to the floor but it still lurches forward...I also tried to bring the rpm's up gradually till the flag appears...same results
Prior to installing the tune I was able to use launch control without any issues...I'm wondering if it's possible to install a trans brake for track days |

My best advice to you would be... post surgery make sure you get a CPM(continuous passive motion) machine to help with the inflammation...I was on a call and fell through the roof of a building and tore both acl's at the same time. Good luck on the 18th brother
