Launching with just the antilag on is fun enough.
Our software won't allow both to be active at the same time... Is it ours you're running?

Any long-term experiences regarding turbo life, etc? Will a std T3 in good nick take that stress or will the shaft fall apart after 2 starts?

First one i've come across where both will work together!!!

Normally the LC is overridden by the ALS, so when you rev the engine it will rev through and just pop and bang on lift off...

i have only switched it on and revved it on the spot, never tried using it, but with both switches on its twice as loud, does struggle a bit tho.

I didn't set the camera to high quality before we took the vids, so they came out a bit crap

Bear in mind, thats with my semi correct LC - i have no boost cut, so i have to balance the boost pressure witht he throttle, hence why there are no backfires as such.
