steady_dave Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 ...i've watched a few videos of some hign powered cars recently (The blue Falken Supra doing a burnout was what brought this question on) At the start of the video when he revs the engine before setting off there are lots of load pop's. Is this fuel cut? If so what does this do and why does it produce a loud bang. If not what is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 The loud bang is unburnt fuel igniting the exhaust, usually the result of a 'two-step' rev limiter (like the Bee*R one) or anti-lag systems. Not sure which as I don't know the video you're talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Could also just be bouncing off the stock rev limiter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodilx6 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 It is his launch control. Part of the engine management I think. Lots of geeky people install launch control systems here in DK to do that.. :-( - a bit embarrasing... BUT... driving through a dark tunnel at night, can make it quite interesting (de-clutch and floor it..) ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
