    Just wondering about launch control for our audi's! Anyone have it? Any pros/cons?
    Who offers it? Price? Can u run it stock? Do u need any additional items to make it work correctly?

    from what i've heard it causes a lot of damage even when barely used 034 could most likely do it

    You are thinking of anti-lag.

    So launch control just limits the rev and a controlled point?! And anti lag is??? I was just watching videos and it seems like "better" shifts for anti lag? Tryn to learn. Thanks guys.

    By the way, thanks j for ur pipes. Piggies hopefully going in this weekend.

    Im pretty sure anti lag builds boost for launch, thus the damage it can cause and launch control just holds the rpms.

    So how do u like it? Worth anything? Can we get it separate, meaning can we add it to an existing tune?

    Hit me up tomorrow ok? I'm at home with a neck injury, but I'll be back at work tomorrow.

    But...I do not recommend it. Besides killing plugs and putting a huge amount of stress on the motor, its devastating to your drivetrain. Learn how to launch first on your own; people have been putting down 11 second runs with K04s for years with good driving, well before launch control was available on Motronic tuning. But we can talk since you have a 034 tune.

    i dont have turbos, so theres nothing to spool. it just holds rpms at 5500. i would call jhm and ask if they have any launch control options for their b5 s4 tunes

    OP, you are asking if you can have launch control...... stock? I think a stock car has much much bigger and better things to have first. Either way, invest in better tires and practice launching a few times, best advice you will get.
