I had it mapped in on my Autronic like Staffi, was some of the best laughs l have had in a car Anti-Lag will definately be getting it in my next Evo this winter and the launch control was great fun if you have a strong enough diff and clutch. I had a switch under the steering colom

Proper launch control provides a massive difference over manually launching (if set-up right). Whilst the conclusion of a smashed diff may be the same, what do you think having 1 bar stationary as opposed to 0 bar for a manual launch will do...... it will kill your transmission a lot quicker!

Unless you require it for competition, then anti-lag is a total waste of time....... especially when you realise how much heat you are creating. I have it and soon got bored (like after two days)...... but then my car IS fast and does not need pops and bangs to make it SOUND fast!

Don't agree, a good ALS set up makes a cossie feel like a big v8, instant punch out of corners, a lot of people mis-use it or don't fully understand the purpose for which it was designed.
