i think to 99% of the population tho a car banging and poping at a set of lights would seem just as chavvy.

but the difference is the chavs do it to make thier car sound/look "bling" (insert random chav term), where as most car enthusiasts the pops and bangs is just a by-product of a highly modified performance vehicle.

Same could of been said for flames out your exhaust before the kits became commercial !!

Wont be too long till someone produces a kit to pop & bang like anti-lag, then whatcha gonna do ?? Take it off ??

And I bet you use the anti-lag for the noise/effect other than it's intended purpose !?!?

I got a flamer & love it !! Gettin Anti-lag too when the SM2 goes on !!

in my opinion anti lag is no differernt to a flamer kit, both shout out ATTENTION WHORE.

Anti lag is for rally stages, if ur using it on the road then its just as "chav" as a saxo with flames
