ive been pricing up some chips lately and i took a look on the msd website as my last chip was from there but then looking at the costs with what injectors, clsoed loop and if i add anti lag and launch control im looking at £700 ish just for chip

so is the anti lag and launch control worth having or is it just good for a gimmick, the car wont be used on track but will be used on the strip and it will only be around 360 ish so nothing powerful

so does lc actually improve 0-60,or would you get same result with slipping clutch ?

lead_foot

iTrader: (1)

Yes, some lc/anti-lag can give you full boost at idle.

Why not upgrade your existing one then mate?
Drop me a mail to sales@remapping.co.uk and I will look after you.

James @ M Developments.

iTrader: (2)

whys that?

Anti lag is the way mate. i have it on my s2 lol lots of fun.

lead_foot

iTrader: (1)

Why? Some tc/anti-lag packages give 15psi at idle.

James @ M Developments.

iTrader: (2)

launch control doesnt work at idle, it operates at WOT and we choose the engines limited speed

ajamesc

i have them both on my autronic sm4 anti lag is a bit of a waste of time on a road car but launch control is very good gets me off the line much faster and i have full boost straight away with limited revs till im moveing and take my finger off the button much better than leaveing a big cloud of smoke and too big black lines!

15psi isnt full boost tho on most cars.

We are not just talking about 'your' system.

James @ M Developments.

iTrader: (2)

well it wont be a very good launch from idle


on anyones system

James @ M Developments.

iTrader: (2)

als will give positive plenum pressure at idle, but launch control doesnt operate at idle, usually at around 4-5k rpm...

Standard comp, bd14 inlet cam, t4. You can send it of to Msd and the can change the map to what ever you want or run the same spec as mine

Anti lag is good for making loads of noise, making people pull funny shapes at the side of the road and drawing attention to yourself just for those factors I'd say get it

launch control don't know, don't use mine

id love to have antilag but thay say the turbo doesnt last long

Can launch control be fitted to any chip/map?
Or do MSD have to remap your whole car to activate it?

Ive never used my anti lag or launch control properly.. but i think its worth every penny just to scare people.. espically at santa pod where you can terrorfie the guys on the starting line up.. big pops and bang!!!

Ive read somewhere about the turbos not lasting long too somewhere. Properly in the ford mags

it will be a good test of your transmission and turbo, but its great fun :P

Stu @ M Developments

iTrader: (12)

We will upgrade any of our chips with the features, in house or via mail order.

I had lc and als on my Autronic and it was great fun, as Chalie says als is funny and scares the shit out of people so worth it there and lc is great for pulling away in the old traffic light gp ....

Hi Stu
Martin has built my engine and is going to map it for me, it's just i'd like launch control is not possible just to add it to somebody else map?
Cheers Rich

Stu @ M Developments

iTrader: (12)

Afraid not sorry mate.
The problem is Martin will warranty your chip for life and I suspect your engine for a period too, as we would had we built it, but we would both quite rightly void the warranty on each of those items if we found out someone else had been in the ECU changing the chip running it all because if it blows up, who exactly is going to accept the blame?.

JamesH

iTrader: (21)

For the price of it I'd get aftermarket ECU with all the features, did have it all and it was good fun though, just have to be very careful with the ALS!

Going aftermarket now
