(BOV aint the greatest Idea neither sorry to say LOL

Boost controllers for the TT you are pretty limited to Greddy or Apexi avc-r as they run on RPM based maps, because of the 2 turbo\'s and their different limits, ie 14/16

a normal EBC (Electronic Boost Controller) will simply up both to 16psi etc, and as you can imagine that\'s not ideal

The twins are fine once you get used to them.

Every one wanks on about single conversions and singles are the only way to go.

I\'ve driven both and yes singles are good for low end power but I want most of mine at the top end so meh depends what you need it for.

Just cause its fun to argue

TT setup makes same peak power as equivalent sti (more or less) - but at stupid high RPM (mine peaked above 7k?)

And all at the expense of about a 100-150hp deficit right in the midrange where you want it

See exhibit A

Ah do what you want - have a look through the build threads for ideas - My advice if keeping it twin, go for an FMIC and big exhaust and dont bother touching the boost, it will rise by itself anyway - if you want to go further save your pennies and just do a single swap

It\'s a very cheap swap to do and does not have to be a big undertaking, biggest expense is the turbo itself and selling your B4 ones offsets that mostly anyway

^^^ thats not bad! Im impressed. Epic VOD tho,

weren\'t they around the 206kw standard?

I reckon opening up the exhaust and intake, plus running 12 & 16PSI with GFB BOV ill be happy as! Yes everyone talks about single turbo but other then the VOD its not to horrible.

I get the little kid thing I was a big flutter bov fan myself. Those TT have a very nice sound compared to the early single scroll wrx stuff.

That intake above looks pretty sweet along with the other intercooler pipes. Getting rid of those restrictions and throwing on a FMIC with decent exhaust seems to work well in reducing the VOD which in turn gives you a good wack of midrange. All theory Ive only driven a few IRL.

The more you free up the intake the more bovy noises you will get esp with a pod which are a bit of a downgrade as the stock airbox is pretty much a cold air box.

      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
