Default 2step??

I dont think our cars really like to be launched like that. I have been in a 2 step Supra on launch....it is kind of violent.

We have done it with the Motronic, just as a one off example never offered it as a product. As stated already, it's not healthy on the drivetrain.

i know the msd can be added and it has it, but i dont think i really want to put msd on the car. just figured if it could be programed in it'd be better. if i knew how to hack the dme code id be all over it , but i dont have the first clue.

Do you use mind control to cut spark and only dump fuel on the launch??

I would imagine the point of have a launch control is to launch with boost, you can't do that without going F&F style burnout launch.

A 2 step can be used for that, yes...
