Anti-lag basically makes the turbo spin all the time, it generates alot of heat and shortens turbo life greatly. It's similar to the new launch control, but runs on all cylinders and is completely insane on anything but a full-on track car!

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle!

I guess it is not popular in our cars due to traction and Torque.

Many people have had years of life out of their turbo running it... the trick is not to sit on it for too long. 2 seconds is all you need, like the supra in the video at the start of this thread.... pop pop pop, GOOOOOOONE!the issue has been with programming it into the tune on our XR`s, its difficult if not impossible without some 'help'... Also being able to flatshift consistantly without loosing boost between shifts - notwithstanding being a freak driver like F6 UTE... Edited 21/05/08 04:00 AM by groper

Yeah, I know, I know! you're totally right... he's no better...still doesn't change the fact that it's freaking annoying!
