Launch control

Post by mbonner02 »

Anyone got any knowledge on how to fit launch control to an x16xe? Seen a couple of videos on YouTube with it on that engine on a b and a nov a but not a guide or how to or any real useful info I know it's also referred to as a step 2 Rev limiter. But want to know what it is I actually need and how to fit it. Cheers

I'm not sure but I think you splice into the speed signal and a prem/switched live and Jills your nephew, but that could be just 100% wrong :lol:
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

That makes absolutely no sense to me haha. I've seen the omex system and I think that's what used on the ones on YouTube but I have no idea and don't want to wreck or ruin my car by having a go at it lol

Bit of research done now :lol:

There no real good with a corsa ecu, you can only lower your limit, and launch control is only good for setting your rev, it won't do anything else because there's no abs and it's not an electric clutch


BUT... It'll sound cool as f**k :)

Looks easy to wire aswell

And this is the info /price of them
