Our system with the plug and play harness has launch control as standard and does not require any additional signals. If you want flat foot shifting, however, you will need to get our other version for drag racing that requires 4 ABS signals in addition to our plug and play harness.

Allow me to clarify that. The drag racing version is only necessary on manual transmission cars that want flat foot shifting. The 7AT already gives you that ability. ;)

Man this is a must have probably gonna have to wait a little while after boosting though.

Looks like it'd be a fun option for NA too!

I'm on 295's now and can barely keep it on the road with nothing done but test pipes.

Flat foot shifting is keeping your right foot flat to the floorboard on the gas pedal while shifting without using the clutch.

The traction control system has the ability to cut power to the engine just enough to unload the dog gears in the transmission so you can engage the next gear instead of using the clutch to unload the dog gears.

I believe you are wrong. Flat foot shifting is not lifting your foot off the throttle but still using the clutch to switch gears just as you would. With the RLTC it kicks in a rev limiter that you set that is tripped when you press the clutch allowing you to hold the throttle at 100% and not bounce off the rev limiter.

Since you never let off the throttle you do not bleed off boost which according to RL can shave 0.10s off each shift.

I do this when I get on it now but would love to see what this system does in this area

I believe this is correct. Switchin gears without using clutch is power shifting. Something I've seen done but would never do to my own car.

Although quite expensive it seems it gets the job done with traction problems with this car and big power and having launch control would be great. Gonna have to get it down the road!

Group buy?
