Hi,

I love the sound of ALS and ive been told pops n bangs can be mapped too. Wondering if anyone has any video's of each to compare?

I ask as its ECU time, trying to decide between the more expensive Simtek or the Apexi. Any other benifits of running the Simtek other than Maf less ALS and Launch control?? Does it come with a cool display to let you edit boost, monitor Det and run different boost levels for improved fuel consumption?

Ta

Also. Anyone running very mild antilag on a normal STI turbo? vf28? is this turbo capable of taking mild als without destroying the life of the turbo?

 

i have mapped pops, sound quality!
dynamix on here has heard them on my car (funny that as he mapped them in)!

i'll see if i can get a sound clip or a vid of them tonight for you

 

thanks jim that would be awesome

 

Sorry to be a party pooper, but peopel who feel they have 'anti-lag' on a road car only have it mapped for pops and bangs. Anti-la would make short order of your turbo, which would be lucky to make it past hundreds of miles.

If you doubt that I say then ask Simon Roe or any other reputable mapper.....

Funny that then as i,ve had Anti-lag on 4 different cars now via Autronic ECU and NEVER once has a turbo gone on me, all turbos have covered into the thousands of miles too..........

DON,T believe everything you hear or read..........

i use to get serious gunshots on my standard ecu. my power fc was mapped with pops and bangs but sounded no where near to loud as before. the way to a loud pop is by serious overfueling alot

 

lol ok.

The esence of ALS you can im sure have different strengths. Im sure fully antilag, or als which actually does keep the boost up will chew a std turbo. im talking more cosmetic als/very mild als. i dont expect my turbo to take enough als to actually make a performance difference.

If i can get decent pops with the apexi. What other reasons are there to choose the SIMTEK? I dont intend on doing any launches..? Apexi is dual map right?

 

heres a video of mine not simtek but with a miltek 3" system with a high flow sport cat with a ecutek remap

 

you get any flames with a cat on??

 

No
but im going to take the sport cat out and put a de-cat in should have some then

 

wouldnt it work with a flamer kit ??

reason am asking you have the same set up as me

 

thanks for the vid

Jim you ever get one taken?

I find a nice bang on the track is good discouragement for anyone catching me i base this on the fact it discourages me when i catch other subaru's

 

what about having pops and bangs like this
YouTube - quattro short wheel base bang pop

 

As most will admit, unless its full antilag its just a gimmick but a gimmick i like..

Heres mine.

 

yes a gimmik i like too. Just dont know whether mapped pops will give enough of the als style or if i should go for simtek and get really mild als added.

Thanks for the video clips keep um comming. will watch them later tonight at home.

 

JayAllen yours sounds perfect.

What are you running? Are those mapped or als?

 

Simtek with AL.

 

Hmmmm

 

Any other vids of Mapped pops vs als?

Or anyone running ALS on a VF28?

 

My V3 has anti-lag but i rarely use it cus the pops&bangs Bob mapped into the car are mental enough and the flames too....

 

AntiLag on Solaris here ... great for the child inside and seems to work for performance too - particularly when combined with the flat throttle shifting I have

As Jim said earlier - we gave his some pops and bangs. Easy enough to add some sound effects in to a map - most (not all) mappers will do it if you ask them.

 

Any vids jim/pete or sound clips?

Im very much after the sound of Jay, but perhaps i could live without it being quite so mental Gunshot on gear change kinda thing

Or if possible something like that via mapping

 

What model have you got, mods etc ?

 

myself. its currently a v4 sti with decat 3" back. so it needs mapping. and i want some nice pops n bangs for when i want to show off cos i think it sounds cool

Hoping to eventually take the engine to about 350+

 

i've got anti-lag on my simtek, only use it through tunnels mainly. get everybody in the tunnel thinking 'what the f***@ lol

wiley

 

lol on a standard turbo?

 

should get flames with the de-cat, my boyfriend got a flamer kit on his do get a bigger flame with the kit. his car used to pop, bang and flame but when he put his tubalur manifold on it all stoped

got a video of his flame if you want to see it

 

Lol,

I,ll show you my flame if you show me yours..
