FInally making substantial Allmotor mods. . .almost track time.

Alright!! My 5zigen catback and kamikaze CC header go into my 94 LX this weekend. I've already got my AEM CAI installed so I'm really psyched to see what kind of gains I get. Add that to my new tails, headlights, fogs, and clear bumpers and I'm pretty psyched about my car. (Pics soon)

One thing I'm kinda concerned about, and I'm semi hesitant to ask is about launching my car properly off the line. I'm afraid to just dump the clutch on my 9 year old car so if anyone can assure me that its ok or give me the proper procedure for launching my 5 speed, i would be greatly appreciative.

i thought you said you were making substantial all motor mods. I/H/E are just the basics.

you should wait more than 5 minutes when you're disconnecting your battery in order to reset your ecu. wait at least 10 minutes, then reconnect the battery, start the car, let it idle for another 5-6 minutes, then turn it back off, and then your car will be ready again when you turn it back on. whatever you do...DO NOT...hit the gas while your car is idling for those 5-6 minutes. other than that, it should be a piece of cake.
