    I have to agree here, unless you can tune it at the track, it's hard to get the right setup...

    x2 if you havnt setup launch control you must bring a laptop to experiment...

    it sucks if you dnt have an lsd and good tyres... ive found launch control to work ok without an lsd and good tyres if you rev it out but only 3 quarter throttle... if you go full throttle expect lots of wheeel spin and shit 60ft times lol

    i adjusted mine right down to 2500rpm last time & still got nowhere,still no amount of clutch work or throttle back off could get me off the line,if u have to back off the throttle under launch control theres not much point having it activated to begin with.

    seldom do NA cars go to ignition cut,dont need to try spool no turbo,so not needed,fuel cut is fine.

    And this is why i'd ask does Launch control offered by all the ECU has the same system/function/setup...I guess some are just diff..
    you do not need a laptop on the spot to experiment with it...some ecu does offer Data Logging for x amount of time...tuner then will mix and match the best possible launch using the log and create a file best suit the car...

    ok...let me ask...if comparing 18 degree and 30 degree, will it gonna change 0.5 sec of your time???

    launch ctrl that offers ground speed detection will help to give an est of "more or less wheel spin" while u launch the car...so track temp will not have too much to concern if the file created is perfect...
