that's my mates S2000 on this run he ran antilag setup through his ECU so he had boost off the line. you notice the backfires.

can you fix your link, it might be messing up windoze users... i fixed it in the quote.

But all other anti-lag is on top pro rally cars. yet under most of there rules conditions - they need it so they have god sort out systems to keep them on boost.
I don't see why you need it in NZ - then again most of your roads are like rallys.

thats just it, when sideways (and i am sideways a LOT) you NEED good, ney, great response... so i must have a solution for throttle modulation whatever it is...

They do put alot of stress on your turbocharger but. I know a few people running group N type production rally cars in both national and smaller loacl compitions and most can use it but they don't because the cost of killling a turbo for that minor bit of performance is not worth it. Most just drive around the lag. but most of the cars are setup for almost no lag right ratios' etc.

i also want some better ratios for the ute, but that doesnt solve the skid problems, and thats what i love to do most. it also doesnt solve the mid corner modulation proplems either, and i need that to be spot on also for going as fast as possible on a track (or windy road) with maximal safety and control.

That bit on the GT4's it was an option for rally owners. When they bought there GT4's for rally use Toyota had a number of options.

homologation spec cars had it, otherwise silly car purchasers couldnt use it in the rally, and wouldnt have an advantage over other vehicles.

Some of you noted early or lates 80's cars
Back then to clean up emissions they used vacuum pumps or air pumps to pump in freash air into the exhuast system so not only did you loose power from bad pre Cat exhuast you lost 1-3hp at the crank driving this pump.
The thing is people have turned them into anti- lag type setups with right retard and extra rich fuel it works well.

now, this is the good oil, any links etc on these pumps and or ppl that have done it? sounds feasible. i'd still like to know how well a venturi system would work. once there was a bit of spool in the turbo, i reckon it could keep it spinning, but getting it there from idle maybe not so easy.

but again of course the main issue with anit lag is turbo damage to the turbine - not so much the housing as it can take the sudden change of temperature - well it can take it better then of a turbine.
Don't try it on ceramice wheel RB garrett turbo.

yeah, i know those are [shizzle], no one worth their salt uses them for much at all... fine stock, but above stock, you need to ditch them... the holset on the other hand is a brick [shizzle] house, and i'm confident that it can survive intermittent als use for my application.
