Anti-lag is used alot in rallying to keep the turbo spooled and since their sponsored, they get free turbo's

But to answer your question... Yes it will kill your turbo's life by alot. So unless you are sponsored, I wouldn't really do it alot

You're not refering to a 2-step and just calling it antilag are you. Just wondering, because they are different and I just wondered what you would need antilag on the street for.....especially with a turbo that small.

^ right

Some people don't know the difference between a launch control 2 step and an actual anti-lag setup.

I'm guessing its just a 2 step.

my friend has this full throttle shift thing on his IX that everyone was calling an antilag kit, its not that is it? anti lag keeps the turbo spooled when you let off the gas.
