i've been watching a bunch of those "anti-lag" videos on youtube and was wondering if you could do this without it sounding like your shooting crap outta your tailpipe all the time?

You can build up boost with a regular 2 step.. it just depends on what RPM youre set up at. Anti-Lag setup builds up boost and makes that gunshop sound.. but it WILL slowly destroy your manifold, turbo, and a downpipe.
still wondering if anyone has 2 step on their tc without a standalone

Running around with a 2-step is not a good idea...it serves a purpose.

You want to leave the line making the maximum amount of controllable power.

Utilizing a 2 step = adding timing to help create a load on the motor to get the turbo to spool, so you can make more power at the line.

Its great for those who really want to get into drag racing...but it creates tremendous strain on your motor and parts. Just be careful.

If all you want is to create the cool sound ie racket it makes, its definately not for you.

ya norris' evo is extremely fast and obnoxiously loud lol I love it....




as far as two step goes for a tc, I dont see the point unless you launch all the time or unless you're a serious drag racer.....it does look like fun though lol
I mean I could see it being pretty bad a$$ to do at a stop light (that's my immature side coming out for a second) or something if some other dude OR girl keeps revving at you. Almost just like a "...shut up" type of thing. But other than that it's nice to have so you can dial in launches..but for street vehicles it allllllllll depends.

And like Todd said..it puts a whole lot of strain on the motor..so if you're looking for the cool sound...definitely not the thing to do.
