Nope, you need an aftermarket ecu, but note that in most cases (not all) anti lag systems can seriously decrease the life of the turbo.

I have the antilag function on my Auyronics ecu...When switched it makes some serious noise.Havent had a chance to really experiment with it yet as was only fitted last week,the fact you have boost ready makes it very responsive in lower gears,coming on and off the throttle is instant,more like a switch!!!

If you drive around with it on all day then yes.............but my car is a toy so only gets out once ibn a while...

Plus you need to have this function set up by someone who knows what they are doing..
