On the turbo for sure. However most of the big modern turbo's are pretty durable and can take a fair bit of it.

It's not for very long either, normally it's only held for a few seconds and you can see big boost. The engine's getting a whole load of fuel to keep it happy and with Ryan setting it up you would never have to worry about that.

 

Here's mine when we were testing, in the 2nd short blip of the throttle 30psi was being made which would be more than enough to go from

 

 

I'm wanting some of that for sure :D

Generally speaking people mean something different when they say launch control and anti lag. Launch control is just as applicable to an N/A engine as a supercharged engine, but anti lag is of course specific to supercharged engines.

 

The top two webinars under ecu and installation will set you straight re launch conrol. Anti lag is strictly the preserve of race and rally car owners with a budget big enough not to worry about treating trick turbos and manifolds like cheap fags.
