Tegsport? Isn't that the same people who ran Mark Higgins in the MSA BRC?
If so move of Simon (JGM) I want a new bitch to play with.
I too am getting SIMTEK soon with ALS and a few other bits. Can't wait.

You will see no gain from ALS, as said, its a bit of a gimick tbh, rally cars use it because of their setup, and personally I wouldnt want to use it on a subaru, especially if your after sprints and track days, the less noise the better, and depending on what you have done to your engine, it wont like it

Running anti-lag so that it actually works, with a jacked throttle then yes would be the answer, but I thing you will find running it 'just for effect' the answer is most likely a no.
I ran mine on my old vf23, and they are not the strongest of turbos, it was ok, I now run it on a Harvey 20g and that is fine as well. We do run it a bit more aggresive now but nothing like WRC setup.
I do have and EGT gauge to keep an eye on things, but that said it is happy enough running for quite long periods of time. Ask anyone who was on the WMI 2010 tunnel run!.
That is all it is any good for, but what a laugh it is.

I've had ALS on my car now since May. Ok, I admit I play with it now and then.
But I did a test in high gears with low revs and switched the ALS on. ok yes granted it's for RALLY USE but it does what it says on the tin.
Switch it on on the motorway and it's great.
Mine goes from -0.8bar to +0.9 with it on at idle.

I have had a simtek with anti lag for while now,i dont use it that much but it does sound good.I love the lumpy idle and way it sounds when you are slowing for a corner.
How long do you guys drive with it turned on?
