I installed it the other day and it works great. Im running the factory turbo and factory injectors. On setting number 10(the highest setting) im seeing 8psi at 5,000rpms. I was suppose to test it out at the track yesterday(1/4) but ran into multiple problems that caused me not to make it...we will be testing it out at the local 1/8 mile track this Thursday :naughty:

Great. Looking forward to hearing about it. I was looking at getting one this season. How was the install?

Let us know how it goes!

Thanks for reminding me I need to figure out how to setup the AEM anti-lag. Im making way to much boost on the traditional 2-step setup, even on AEM's softest setting. I hear its alot easier to control the boost with the anti-lag

It only 3 wires.

- 1 wire is ground
- 2 wire is power that goes through a toggle to a relay
- 3 wire that comes from the clucth swich that activates the relay of your choice

its kinda finiky at times. It surges sometimes when its trying to hold the rpm that I set it at. But it works great. I launched it 2-3 times and it peeled the outer layer of tire off.... :lolling:

to set the rpm you:
a) push in the clucth with the toggle on
b) hold the set button on the controller(middle button)
c) rev to rpm of your choice
d) hold it there for 2 seconds and release the set button
e) then hold it at the rpm for anouther 2 seconds before letting off the gas

then it has a + and - for the 10 settings for 2 step aggresiveness!

Ill post a vid soon. I have the one posted on there site currently. The kool thing about it is that you can kit the antilag while driving...

How the heck does this thing work with just three wires? I don't really get it. I understand the theory behind anti-lag but don't see how having power, ground, clutch trigger is making it happen. Mind explaining it to me?

One wire splices into the 1* CAS wire.
One wire is ground.
One wire goes from launch control>manual switch>switched side of relay. The opposite side of the switched side comes from 12V power. The coil side of the relay has 12V power, and the opposite wire goes to the clutch switch. The second wire on the clutch switch goes to ground. So when the clutch switch grounds (clutch depressed) and the manual switch is closed, the unit powers up and randomly interrupts the CAS signal to the ECU. Essentially, it interrupts and grounds the CAS signal.

I know that to gain boost at a stand still timing is retarded and the ignition missfires....So im assuming the little computer that does that is in the hand controller.

It isn't technically an anti-lag. It sounds to me like it doesn't affect the timing.

"This is technically a 2-step, but has an antilag personality, if u will. A little trickery causes the ECU to skip some of the sparks but still adds the fuel. This is done to use that fuel to spool the turbo." - Jason Rush

Thanks, I didn't realize one of the wires tied into the CAS trigger.

careful with this...if its anything like the bee*r limiter (which it sounds like it is) dont go too crazy with it as if you catch the ign sequence with alot of fuel and load it could be bad news.
from what i can tell it sends the ecu a 'junk' cas signal which interrupts the firing sequence, typically the engine will inject fuel with only one cas signal but requires both 1* and 120* for ignition so that it fires off exactly when expected.

Jeez a guy doesnt have enough time to do that at the staging light at the strip does he?

By the way hilarious video man hahah. Rush Racing should hire you for marketing. You can start making commericals.

hahahah...Those instructions I wrote is only to set the rpm. After its set all you have to do is flip a toggle swicth, push the clucth in and put the pedal to the floor.

What can happen? And how does this differ from better systems?

Yeah Carl H, what can go wrong? Is destroying piston rings one of the side effects??
