My 106 GTI has an air pump.

I have racecar now?

In fact, here's a standard 16V. I'm tapping the throttle.

I just push da button innit

Hard cut or Soft cut? I found in 4th around the launch control limit if holding the button while driving it does bang, just not sitting still, that may of been on soft cut also i cant remember ill have to check

See mine doesnt bang like that on launch control, i guess they're all different!

Bedford - Nah mate I'm not mad, just no need to come troll really:bored:

Trololololol....:homme:

Lmfao! Never gonna win so i'll just go along with it! :homme:

It's all in the set up, mines soft cut at 2500 hard at 3500 retard to 1degree and cut fuel and spark 9 events from 15 gives a very clean 3500 rpm launch..

:wacko:

What? :panic:

omd'z this thread is kind of getting out of hand i think,

They aren't pops lol.

Why would launch control make pops and bangs? Are you thinking of anti lag? :S

noob or trollin?

It cuts the spark so the revs stay at eg 3k whilst your right foot is buried.

Cut spark + full throttle + hot exhaust = boom.

Apparently noob. I thought it just held the revs at a certain point, didn't know it did it by effectively cutting out.

Either way I would rather have anti lag.

not entirely true

this will explain it better than i can be bothered to

Yes they are.

I've still got a cat and both silencers.

Not always, and the exhaust doesn't have to be hot. the excess fuel (now sitting in the exhaust due to the spark cut) which provides the pops is primarily ignited by flames coming past the valves.

Proper rev limiters cut the fuel or retard the timing. cutting the fuel is hard cut and retarding is soft cut.

I made a soft cut for my 1.5D once, hilarious. :P

Yes, you are noob. anti lag is for turbo charged cars :D not spaxos.

If you have an electronic TB, you could set it up to hold revs lower through the ECU. but I don't think it would be as effective.

The Macdonalds crew would give a solid 2 out of 10.

Why would I go to McDonalds to rev my car?

If I did want to be part, why would I take a lowered car which is OEM.

noob :homme:


Clearly, you don't rate my car as being able to pop, you must be part of their crue, only official McDonalds car park members can give ratings out.

aahhhhh you got me.
