Our mods are very similar, with the exception that I don't have a CAI. I have the same RT-615s as you, and in terms of cornering grip I think they are the best available (R-compound aside). I have RT-615s on my wife's Civic, which has a K20A2 and a bunch of other goodies. I cannot even launch at 3K without spinning to redline. However, with this Civic (and the present setup) I have been told to feather the clutch and I haven't tried that yet.

I preloaded the clutch like I normally do and the car just bites off the line. This also could be the cause for my slipping. Doing a burnout with the parking brake on thinking your tires are spinning, but really your clutch is slipping didn't help at all. I'm sure that took a lot of life off of it, cause I completly roasted it that day. IDIOT!!! lol That happened the first time I went to the track. I've abused that clutch bad so I knew it was only a matter of time. LOL Just wish it could have somewhat held for at least one more run.

^ Have you had your car dyno'd with your current mods?
I expected more considering what I made with just exhaust, but maybe the clutch was slippn on the dyno too? I dunno. I'll dyno again after new clutch.

I have often heard that, when drag racing, you only want to change one variable (i.e., tire pressure, launch RPMs, etc.) at a time when "dialing in" your car. On our S2000s, which variable would you start changing first?
