Tinfoil on your brake booster? Surely the heat can't affect the fluid that much

LOL, its foil sticky tape.. not tinfoil as such. And yes the brake booster is cool to the touch where the tape is applied and hot to the touch where it isnt.

Purely a preventative measure due to no heat shields on the Turbo (there is heat wrap on the DP) but the foil tape actually works very well to reflect heat!

I also put the tape on the underside of the intercooler alloy Y pipe (closet to the turbo)

um i think like commercial aircon/airducting guys use it?? i will get a pic at lunch time for yis

i am going to have to charge yis for the R&D that gone into this system LOL

It's available from placemakers, etc. Aluminium tape. Its a bit of a pig to work with and once it sticks to itself you'll never get it unstuck.

Think it's worth the hassle + cost? Could be a little thing to bang on my cold air box to relfect the hot engine heat.

no hassle, prolly bugger all cost.. if it dosent work out, just take it off...

it certainly is cooler to the touch compared to a surface where its not applied

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
