I am currently offering to add this to any existing setup for 50 EUR.
Can do it long-distance, all I need is a readout of the fuel chip in the ECU - I'll modify it and send it back, leaving the tune completely unchanged.
Paul should be able to offer this as an addon with homefries as well soon. This is not some theoretical stuff going on in my head - it is ready for consumption, tested, safe and meant for the masses.
I feel the price is fair for a such feature considering the work involved.Comment

You need a switch under the clutch pedal. If TPS says that you are WOT, the switch is depressed and the vehicle is moving, the ECU cuts fuel.
That way you prevent choking the turbo and when you are done shifting you'll still have boost.
A bypass valve does this too to some extent, but this is much more effective.Comment

Hmm, I think I need to drive to Estonia and take the whole bunch with all the little addons...

Before I get the flat-foot shifting done I need to do gear detection first.
So assuming you are sequential shifting the ECU will rev-match when doing it flat-foot.Comment

I'll have to have a play with this launch control - seems like it could be fun. I created a coarse gear detection map as well as part of FFS idea - that can be tweaked for any gearbox and funky tyre sizes if required. I did it from 1st principles. I want to try the gear detection via OBD to see how reliable it is first of all.Paul Nugent

No!
It doesn't have electronic throttle and it wouldn't know which gear you are going into.Comment

Hehe, yeah it's not good for it, I agree.
I doubt stuff will break that easily though. As long as the wheels slip, it's not that bad.Comment
