Default anti lag system

hello. i have programm from STU. l8 ecu with coil pack

I have problem with anti lag and also Idle air control valve.

Idle air control valve:
works when I put the engine at 1500 rpm and stays stuck there. I tried three others and I have the same problem.

anti lag :
does not work when I open the switch. all you do is throw 500 rpm the engine idling


Can someone help me to find a solution to my problem.
Thank's a lot

start by setting your base idle without the ISCV connected (on a warm engine)

Have you modified the ISCV, per MSD instructions, for running ALS ?
Your ALS will not work on idle, but only on higher revs, on the overrun, or by reving the engine.....

With warm engine and is connected without the Idle air control valve, the engine is 900 rpm.
but if the link is going up at 1500 rpm while the engine is warm


i have modified the Idle air control valve.

how many revolutions of the engine works; (ALS)

as already said, check TPS, and perhaps coolant sensor...

ALS, will work with higer revs, and when lifting the throttle changing gear or on overrun
