anti lag
Turbo Mini Forums

Does any body run/tried antilag?

What about thoughs of you with mapped ignition, have they been mapped to produce a soft antilag system?

Just woundering,

oh at roughly what rpm does a T2 start to produce boost on your Minis

cheers

R5GT unit makes 2psi at around 1800 rpm, and 10psi at 2500 rpm and full boost by 3000 rpm.

Antilag shouldn't be needed on cars like ours i'd have thought. Would be cool to have an A-Series turbo that actually needed it though!!!

You wont run anti lag on a t2 or even a std t3 without melting the exh turbine!

my Ecu has antilag, I may try in next year, too much on my plate to look at the moment

Team Racing

Or any un modified turbo to add to that Alex :)

My mate with a powerful Cossie runs it, he has a special turbo made for the job, the problem he has he said is the ex manifolds can't handle the heat now! :o

they were two seperate questions alex, I wouldnt run antilag on my car, I need it every day at the moment! just woundered out of interst if anyone had tried or uses it.

Miniwilliams, how come your car splits flames like it does are you running something abit different to get that?

arr ok

T2 come on boost about 2.5k but they are silky smooth compaired to a T3 which kicks 3-3.5k and is like a rocket.

T2s are the right size for a 1.3 and good for about 150-160bhp.

But the 40 trim T3 compressor with the .25 exhaust is also the 'right' size for a 1.3!!!

there are many rights

but as std the metro turbo is a bit miss matched!

alex

AlexF

let's agree that the T3 is just 'wrong' then!

hehe, what about 160+bhp then? T25 or a hybrid?

no I love my t3

alex

AlexF

yeah also quite fond of my t3

minster, to get it to flame you need to trash the living hell out if your car (so the turbos Very red) (this is the important bit) or like in my case just drive it normally, as it glows very quickly on my car for some reason, then if your fuelling is rich enough ever time you rev the car up and down quickly it pumps fuel into the hot turbo and if your lucky you get some nice flames, also in doing this you can sometimes generate some boost, and my be get 1 -2 psi briefly on the gauge, it's no real good for any thing but just looks funny.
