ANTI-LAG | How it Works

Turbos are great! But that boost comes after some lag while the turbo spools up. Some high performance cars are equipped with ANTILAG systems to keep those turbos spinning away! They pop and bang to keep their sweet sweet turbos spooled up! They’re the darlings of Drifting and Rally! We break down the two kinds of antilag systems you’re most likely to encounter, and we compare them with the also awesome two step rev limiting. All of them sound awesome and can shoot flames!

Bart teaches us how cars work by blowing stuff up and cutting things in half. It’s a science show for the car lover who’s easily bored. Join Bart as he explains the science behind everything automotive. This is cars down to the atom. This is Science Garage.

Some of our best videos ever are coming out soon, stay tuned so you won't miss a thing!

Donut Media is at the center of digital media for the next generation of automotive and motorsports enthusiasts. We are drivers, drifters, and car enthusiasts who love to tell stories.

I LOVE and miss science garage. My kids obsessed over this show on your channel. They understood mechanics so much better after these episodes. They even drive better operates better and diagnosed their mechanical issues better and understood it well enough to teach their friends

"You need that throttle response right nyaw"

older jdm Evos came with a baby version of anti lag straight from the factory :)
it wasnt activated on the ecu but it was installed for homologation rules. it was an SAS system like you described. (supplementary air system)
you can turn it on on the stock ecu with just a laptop for some nice pops and bangs :)

who can dislike this guy? that's right, NO-ONE

[Jack-mfhi]

I wonder what happened to the Evo at 0:55

[atn]

This guy is like the bill nye of car modding lol

[ashersoo]

This guy is so informative and does it in a comedic way, noise :)

"THE THING GOES
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG "

Is it broken? Don’t worry it’s going to be broken...

[DemeterVT]

So, if I understand correctly :

Secondary air injection + 2-Step launch control = **INSTANT BOOST INTENSIFIES** Did I get it right ?

[mwmmatt]

Finally! A channel that actually did research and know what anti lag is, it pisses me off to no end that so many people mix it up with launch control.

Good job, guys!

Man, I learned more from you than anywhere else. Love the easy-to-understand ways you explain things that makes it fun to learn!
