Ignition turn 2, foot down, needle moves to rev 1k (map 1), foot off, foot on, needle moves rev 2k (map 2).

Would be explained by your mapper.

Well, you can do that, but you'd be better off using the switch system we recommended! all you have to do is flick the switch for two maps on the fly. Doddle!
If you'd like to know more about it, call us, or check the Simtek page on our website. Alan Jeffery - Engine Tuner

Does the switch system put the bung in on the fly too

Switch sounds good but I mainly use map 1 and only map 2 on rare occasions. I can see it would be ideal for flicking on ALag

We fit three switches for those using anti lag. One is for map switching, one for the anti lag, and another for launch control.
I'll give you a tip about Steve Simpson. He won't work without tea!

High/low boost seems to be the most popular option.....
