: Is it really worth the money to get one if these with the :launch control system? yes :-) :So if I get this, should I be able to launch my 5 speed on :say...5psi (dumping the clutch)and I am sure it will spin :some but not a lot?
only if you've got a great clutch (read "race clutch") and are using at least drag radials. otherwise you'll kill the clutch launching with such high boost, so you have to slip a "lesser" clutch some. the reason you need drag radials is because the momentum/power of the engine will cause normal street tires to instantaneously spin, with the traction control unit controlling the spin about a second later. BUT, if you want to launch with say only 1 or 2psi of boost, it will be easier on both your clutch and tires. :Should I be able to get 1.9 and under 60fts?
yes, Orion gets 1.8's consistently now. :Can I use this on the streets and race from a dead stop and kick some azz of the launch (no turbo lag)?
yes, but again, you'll have to take into account running street tires, and only launch with very minimal boost.
