How to launch on boost

[Shrikecorp]

Sounds like the jb4 needs another dongle for this. Just saying.

Funds are waiting.

I tried just using the ebrake this weekend and couldn't get over 2500RPM without it moving on me, tried it 3 different times, twice in sport mode and once in custom with the engine and trans in sport and AWD in comfort and still no go.

So with the all wheel drive fuse in and the brake disconnected, you can hit 3300rpm on the foot brake and its is one helluva launch, definitely need more than stock tires.. never got a chance to launch it on the track and get a time but it's a SIGNIFICANT difference.. I'd love someone to grab a 0-60 time with this

If I'm understanding correctly:

AWD fuse stays in
Unplug connector behind brake pedal
Brake Boost
Launch

easy peezy lemon squeezy.. Good part is, brake lights still work, but if you need to shift (to reverse/ from neutral to drive/ or out of park), you'll have to hold the plugs together while doing so.. It also feels as though the torque controllers are non-existent with the connector out.. On full throttle in 1st and second gear, the car wants to wiggle its rear end and definitely feels untamed.. so try this at your own risk!

You mean shift into 2nd or shift into park?

Welcome to my life in a high HP RWD car. :lol2:

shift into reverse, or from park to drive. you can shift from drive to neutral or drive to park with it unplugged.

 

[Metalmania82]

But not park to drive?

 

[Kinvara8017]

But not park to drive?

nope, for that you have to lean down and hold the connectors together for a second to shift from park to drive.. As someone stated before, the best way to do this is put your car in drive with the parking brake on and then undo the connection.. its a bi**h but its worth it..

Ok that makes sense now. I thought I was missing something there.
Any kind of warning lights?

All kinds of them.. Youll be bringing santa out of hibernation by unplugging it, then he will flee back home after you launch that bitch on 12PSI

Ok this might help. We have the schematic for the connector at the pedal and the ECU as well. Looks like one of the wires 49 or 83 in the ECU will do the trick.

A part number come with that schematic? Could bridge the connection using proper plugs and put an inline switch on just the one wire, put the switch anywhere. For those of us interested in being able to quickly remove all traces of hooliganism.

Hokay. So where's this plug on the brake pedal?

FYI im not sure its true or not but someone kia related told me that they have a black box they call it and when they hook it up they know if any of the plugs have been disconnected if u were ever to go in for any warranty claims so be careful.

Black box like Airplanes?

If that's true about half the 7k members of this site are going to have some serious 'splainin' to do...

That's not possible... I can unplug anything I want on my car, whether it's on purpose or accidental. The dealer cannot void any warranty but they can deny a claim if they can prove the owner caused the damage

...I'm an AWD stinger....

What trim level AWD? My GT2 in RWD mode cuts throttle after 1 second of tire roasting even with traction and stability off.

You have to unplug the brake pedal to do that

I can light up the rears like that without using the brake but throttle cuts after a second or so. Like traction control is still on. GTs can spin but not sure the drive by wire gt2s can. Or maybe it is an AWD thing (fuse pulled)
