Launch control

What launch control does, which cars can have it added, and the honest wear conversation.

Trade documentation

This is module reference: what the tuning software can change inside a control unit, and which vehicles and ECUs each one is proven on. It is written for tuners. If it is your own car, you do not need to work any of this out - tell us the car and the symptom and we will tell you what applies.

Launch control holds the engine at a chosen speed against the brake, manages torque
delivery as the clutch engages, and gets the car away without either bogging down or
lighting up the tyres.

Plenty of cars have the hardware and the gearbox to support it but were never given the
function, usually because it was reserved for a higher model in the range.

The part people do not want to hear

Launching a car is hard on the clutch, the gearbox and the driveshafts. On a dual clutch
box it is the clutch packs that pay for it. It is a fine thing to have and an expensive
thing to use every day, and we will say so before we fit it.

For the trade

This is one of the jobs available through our dealer file service. Send the
original read, tell us the vehicle and what you need, and the file comes back
checked. If a job carries mechanical conditions on the car, they are listed in the
coverage table below and they apply to your customer’s vehicle too.

HOW TO READ THIS

Each row is a control module we have a working solution for. The note tells you what typically also has to happen on the car, because where a part has to be unplugged that is mechanical work on the vehicle, not something a file alone can do.

We have more than one route to most of these jobs, so the requirements on your car are confirmed when we look at it rather than taken from this table. Treat the notes as what to expect, not as a fixed instruction.

Marked New means the solution is recent, so we check those individually before quoting.
