A few Anti Lag Videos to test ya eardrums

My mate said it was spitting out smoke ... allthough the car had just been started up after a night in the cold.

bet your car loves you, at least i let mine warm up.

I was in a Lancer Rally-Car with Anti-Lag and you can barely hear it from the inside, I was gutted

But from the outside its proper loud

quality, surely the anti lag exhaust keeping the boost up is just doing the same job a dump valve does (gets prepared to be decimatied)

[Philsutton]

Nope not really, the dump valve will release pressure / air that would normally go back through the turbo stalling it or slowing it down, where as anti lag is putting energy into the turbo to keep it spinning.

One puts energy into the turbo in a sense an the other just reduces the amount that might be lost.

[d171jvf]

ah im with you, sorry for the noob comment, what if you had both? or would that be worse than having neither?

[Jack]

If you have anti lag you'd need some form of dump valve, or throttle bypass device. If you use anti lag to keep the turbo spinning against a closed throttle without any way of the boost escaping you'd very very quickly break your turbo

As Phil said, a dump valve opens when the throttle closes. Without one, the air from the turbo hits a closed throttle plate and bounces back to the turbo fan blades, stalling it. A dump valve opens at this point to allow the air to escape instead of hitting the turbo blades.

"Wastegate chatter" is the noise of air hitting a stalling turbo. Sounds cool, but not good for turbos.
