Desert_phantom Member 141 Member For: 18y 3m 13d Gender: Male Location: NT Posted 08/08/07 03:28 AM Share Posted 08/08/07 03:28 AM Hey guys,I know we all suffer traction issues grr! has anyone looked at or installed the "Racelogic" traction control/launch control system. It is fully adjustable and looks to be a great product. Does anyone know if it is possible to add any of these features with the stock TC system? Could be worth a look at!Cheers, Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully adjustable launch control Adaptive auto detect software Interface for 1-6 coil applicationFuzzy Logic technologySequentially induced misfire TechnologyGizzmo's launch Interface integrates with the Gizzmo Tach Recall Shiftlight to enable the fully adjustable launch control function. The launch control function induces sequential misfire events at the desired rpm set by the user.In a turbo application, having the throttle open while inducing misfire increase the velocity and density of exhaust gases, allowing the turbo to spool up and generate boost with load. This results in boost being generated before launching and therefore allowing a vehicle to launch with considerably more power. The ignition cut is clutch activated allowing flat changing (the ability to change gear without removing your foot from the throttle). With the clutch engaged the rpm will pull back to the launch rpm previously set by the user in order to avoid over reving, this results in the vehicle not coming off boost while moving through the gears.Launch control can benefit natural aspirated cars by giving a consistent launch rpm for best results every time, and enable quicker gear changes through flat changing.Compatible Vehicles:All NissansAll Subaru’sAll Mazda’s accept RotariesAll Honda’sAll Mitsubishi’sThe Rules:Typically the launch interface will work on any car that has an Igniter that …A) is triggered via the ECU B) is not inside of the ECU C) have not got a feedback system to the ECU e.g.(Toyota) D) have not got a ignition control box that encompasses the igniter e.g.(Expensive Daewoo Late model camira V6’s) Vehicles known that are not compatibleAll Expensive Daewoo V6’sAll Toyota’s All Diesels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem would be that the exhaust temps would skyrocket, cooking the cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked into it ages ago when I had a 4 banger hot hatch. I wonder if anyone here had these features on their T when Unichips were all the rage before the edit??Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
