Default Explain A.L.S.

I know what it is and the great sound of it, but i want to know how it works.
I know that you have to have a turbo with a maram shaft and you have to replace the ISCV valve and a chip for it, and you must have a L8 ECU because it won't work on L1 or L6????

But how does is exactly work, is there a extra injector for the system?? and how is it possible to turn it on and off again.


Cheers for the answers.

how much roughly would you be looking at to get an als running in the car
and set up properly. (excluding the cost of a new ecu)

Damn straight it is, a lot of fun.

Only people who say otherwise are people who have absolutley fuck all experience of driving a car with ALS.

And people who think its dangerous to drive like a loon on the road, but they dont count, lol.
