Thanks, I've been working on my setup for a while now. I understand the ware and tear associated with antilag but thank you for highlighting them. Although my car is currently a street car, the anti-lag is being set up for motorsport use. I must say though, it is pretty darn fun... One more thing that makes me feel like a rally racer.

If its not being used on a compition vehical, its useless. Flat shifting is a whole other story.
If you want a cheap and easy, and less stressed way to keep pressue in your charge pipes, run a tight blow off valve setting. Set it so it does not open below 5psi.
WRC cars run 4-6 psi in the manifold at all times.
