[StuDoc 72]

your getting confused with anti lag i think mate

[starlet dude]

naw like my mates hav bee r limiters on ther civic 1.4 and stuff and ther spitting and backfiring like foot flames ther using launch control to do this???

[pick1]

Michael had launch control and his pops bangs and spits flames

[starlet dude]

yea nearly all cars do wen they have it im just wondering am i activating it correctly

[Burny]

Im also running TD05 mate 300+ and mine rarely spits flames either and both Michaels and my car were mapped by TD

[starlet dude]

its strange like every car different

Isn't it an option to get the launch control programmed?

[starlet dude]

yea cant seem to get through to stephen who forged my engine and fitted emu and all does anybody know if he changed his number he was the guy that used to offer the forged setup through trevor on toyota gt turbo forum

[Jhandy]

sounds like it hasn't been set up dude

[BoostJunkie]

LAunch control is not all about spitting flames its just to spool the turbo up so once you lift off the clutch you have instant boost, bee r rev limiters may pop out flames but come at a cost like your crank this is how launch control is supposed to be.

i wud think its down to the map on the car you can map it a small bit rich when its on the overun so you see a small bit of flame

Exactly

launch control doesnt need flames but as said if u run the map a bit rich were it kicks in it should pop flames out. also helps to have from the turbo down to the backbox heatwraped to keep that heat in

Was the TMD GT running an EMU?

[starlet dude]

Wud everybody agree that bee r limiter destroy your crank u can run them low shud do any damage to forged engine?

[Amjad]

A few horror stories have been told but I don't really understand how they work lol

[starlet dude]

There's always pro and cons to everything i fink but surely if kept on low gain settin and rev shudnt do any damage

I think Starbo Moorley is running a beeR u could always ask him how he's set his up And his is on stock internals
