Guest ATL t5m Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Anti-lag system ALSO known as a WOT box.Causes the car to misfire between shifts yada yada, also a wot box is good from a dig. IE you can set the WOT box at 4k RPMS, romp on the gas (stick cars) while clutch is not engaged in 1st gear and it will bounce off 4k rpms as if it was bouncing off the limiter, and this also creates boost so you can launch in boost.

Bounce your car off the limiter in Neutral once and watch the boost gauge, you will hit roughly 6-8lbs on a tuned car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che'_Moderator Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Its what after burners on a jet are. You basically dump un burned fuel into the turbine and light it. You are not relying on exhaust gas per say, more like an explosion in the manifold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything they are closer to launch control than ALS.I understand where your coming from but an ALS prevents comlete loss of boost between shifts right? So does a WOT box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
