Anti lag will kill your engine/turbo (hence one of the reasons wrc cars have rebuilds every 1k miles ) and those engines are built to run anti lag, your normal road going car will suffer, and its illegal to use on the road anyway so its really pointless to have.
You can have pops n bangs added (a bit of overfuelling on lift off), which is much more friendly

Simtek ECU and just get it mapped/unlocked

I have it on mine but it gets boring after a while I wouldn't worry about the turbo given a replacement TD05 on the 95's is like 50-100, possibly the cheapest of all the turbos to replace second hand

Quite pointless in this form and no real application due to noise restrictions.

Good in tunnels though

i think jgm can sort out the simtek ecu..will have to look in to it a bit more, i also have 3 td05 16g that need rebuilding i might convert one with a 20g comp wheel and housing and have a 90 deg pipe so i can keep the top entry system then put all the other bits on and get it mapped.

Id go with either a Simtek or Hydra ecu, as other have said it will shorten the life of your turbo so make sure you use it in moderation, it sounds amazing though!

simtek als and launch are on separate switches, launch can be set to use the nps in the gearbox but from personal experience the switches are pretty flakey on the earlier cars and your better off with an external switch.
