Simtek and Antilag
 
How long can you guys run your antilag for??

After about 20 seconds or so i have to turn if off otherwise the car runs like a bag of $hite..Is this right?

I did the whole Dartford tunnel on the tunnel run and had a little mis-fire but cleared the first time i booted it after

Depends if it is proper antilag or just bang bang! ;)

If it was antilag, running it for 20 seconds wouldnt see your turbo last long! :D

Only used to run mine for 20-30sec bursts on my Evos, wasn,t fully blown WRC style anti-slag though, just more gimmick really, pops & bangs, that was via Autronic ecu..

I asked my mapper (simtek) if it could you it on track and he said a dozen or so laps shoudl be fine.

If only I could claim I run it for 20 seconds:o :D

Peanuts 05 November 2008 05:01 PM

why do you people have anti-lag?

Anger 05 November 2008 05:18 PM

Why not as Simons mapping it and only takes an extra 5 mins to add :wonder:

Shaun 05 November 2008 06:19 PM

LOL @ Peanuts.

If it is proper anti-lag (which I doubt many, if any, run for road use), then unless you need that response when coming back on throttle and you don't mind your turbo being a serviceable item..... little point really.

As for the pseudo anti-lag "wannabee" fart maker..... even less point than above! :D

In the majority, it's a marketing tool, just as the old flamer kits used to be.... that was until everyone thought the flamer kit was a bit.... well, chav. :D

I run launch control with boost (1bar at launch), which obviously uses the proper antilag strategies. I winced every time I used it for launching on the strip this year..... I'm sure that may of helped my previous turbo to expire. :D

As far as i remember he said how long people run it for ....... not if its real or why have it !!!!!

Back on topic lol
