Rolling Anti-Lag

We have launch control or "Race Start" but has anyone successfully coded in rolling anti-lag for roll racing?

rolling anti lag.... ahahahahaha

thank **** the c63s are still expensive here in australia which limits ownership to more respectful (& unvaxxed) people........ or we'd be all be deaf or squashed

If only v8 falcons and commodores were expensive too...lol
You still get the odd ones out west trying to do burnouts in a c63 with the traction on though

Ok, I bite. What exactly is rolling anti lag supposed to be? Anti lag keeps the turbos spooling for brief off throttle moments by continuing to burn fuel in the exhaust manifold. That's where the pops & bangs come from. If you are rolling, combustion is already happening so you have an exhaust stream spooling the turbos assuming you are in a low enough gear to have high enough rpms. What exactly do you wanna code in? There's nothing that can spool the turbos up besides the exhaust stream.

Speed limited spooling while pressing whatever is coded for activation, probably the Home or OK button. Specifically i am wanting to do this for 40/50 roll racing, this is not for pops and bangs and to sound like a brokie with a VQ. Ms, Huracans, Audis and more all have the ability to use this for roll racing when coded in so i do not see the issue in trying to apply that to an AMG platform.

Here is a link to get into more specifications and to educate others.

Ah ok. Fancy name for a speed limiter. EU models have a speed limiter from the factory. You can toggle between CC and the Limiter. For some reason the US spec models don't have the limiter function, but I suppose it can be coded in.

For those of us with larger turbos, rolling anti lag for 40-50-60 rolls would be huge. Wondering if this can be built in to an ECU or TCU calibration. Holding a steering wheel button to activate would be incredible.

@PTG - thoughts on this for the m177?

Ok I think I can tune this, but it would be really a racing tune, you'd lose comfort mode except for limiting power before a roll race.

Do you mind if we PM a bit. I want to understand better. I can share the general method I am thinking about in greater detail if it makes sense.

For those that are unsure of this concept, here is a decent explanation. Also look up Huracan or GTR anti lag - lots of examples to see in action:

You have two small turbos in a "hot v" there is absolutely zero need for this.

****Yea, that's kind of my thinking as well. I have other platforms with *much* larger turbo(s) where "Rolling anti-lag" would be beneficial if it were something to be done through coding, but at least for automatic transmission cars we can adjust torque convertor slippage/lockup to optimize whatever turbos require to get into their sweet spot as quickly as possible along with timing curve and AFR ratios to hot burn and help spool the turbo(s), etc... There's definitely different ways of optimizing depending upon the platform and goals, and it is not always just a coding thing though a modern car like the C63s has more options available to do this than other older platforms which required more mechanical and traditional methods of reducing lag, etc..

Really big turbos somewhat mismatched to a street car could be made to spool remarkably quicker using other techniques from a roll, but not without risks (breakage, damage, etc..). Optimization like this is best done on a dyno as results can be observed in real time, and changes made very very quickly after calculating needs and better matching them to goals.

I owned a MKIV Supra, fully built with a 76mm turbo. THAT CAR NEEDED ANTI LAG. These don't.
