Weird anti lag issues

I've noticed this quite a few times on a few setups, basically instead of \"brap pap pap pap\", its more like \"brraaaaaaaa\" Sounds awful, like its about to blow up. Normally to get it to stop I have to get real conservative with the anti lag settings, like to the point I might as well just turn it off. I've also seen it do it between shifts during fts antilag as well, sounds scary. Sounds like extreme valve float. Anyone else had these issues? Here are two videos, one with my black dc sounding like it should, and one with a reg eg that I built, hear the difference? It was a lot worse on the red eg.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6U89W58UH0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91trKNNndXI I'm worried about ectune's antilag, We just had another setup throw a rod while trying to launch it off the anti lag using very conservative settings.

use less retard. Its because you use too much retard so the motor doesn't have anough power to rev up..

I have the same issue and when it makes that noise it builds like 100psi of boost lol. They suggested I lower my rpm so I'm going to try that. I only have fuel at 10 and ign at 10

Its pretty normal.. if you back the retard down then it will take longer to build boost. Its not gonna hurt anything either way unless you sit there with it lagging for like a minute.

What kind of anti lag fuel values are you all running Chris? I don't think we have ever used more than a 30fv. If we can stay conservative on the timing value and crank the fuel to build more boost I'm good with that. Using less aggressive settings is how we kept it from doing that but I just brought both values down equally as I really was unsure which was causing it. Thanks for your time, DK

I did a turbo LS on a ram horn/SC61 today, used static ign set at 2deg 150 extra fuel. made right at 10PSI at 4500RPM, no saggy revs.

Thanks Chris, I have never tried that high of fuel values, I'll give it a shot. Also I'm guessing you prefer the static retard over the normal one?

Yeah, the static retard seems to give me a more consistant antilag..

Sorry bit of a noob question what do you mean by \"static ignition timing\"

there a check box under the antilag section you can click to set a FIXED amount of timing during antilag.
