No disrespect...but WTF are you talking about!!!!???? Please give us more info or..............FAIL

shakuya88 · 08-13-2008, 07:51 AM

From the way it sounds. I forces the engine to misfire which from my exp...is a bad thing.

Hoooper · 08-13-2008, 08:11 AM

its just a bad explanation for saying its a 2 step. this thing is exactly the same as the KPtech and MRC 2-step/flat foot shifting modules

McLovin350Z · 08-14-2008, 12:41 PM

Im asking for the people that know about the shift light and launch control to give me feedback of the product.....likes....dislikes.....does it hurt the car.....ez install......hard install.......anything

installed what?

UpRev · 08-14-2008, 02:35 PM

So no one wants to suggest a two step for Osiris? Fine, we'll never plan on adding that :-P

UpRev · 08-14-2008, 02:37 PM

I don't think anyone has used a Gizzmo launch control here. They are all similar in the way they work. You would be better off finding an integrated solution than a bandaid solution. I'm fairly certain there are a number of stand alone and piggy back units that offer launch control. We're capable of doing it with map switching right now, but we're looking to add it as a map of it's own in the future.

This should help out a lot of members on the 1/4 track. Just watching youtube videos of 6mt owners losing against the AT from a dig. That's until the 6mt catches up at higher speeds. Launch Control and two step FTW.

drive4fun: The 6mt gain a little more up top because of lower gearing. If the auto has the same gears as the 6mt and the auto gets the jump it wont catch up!!!!

and because a manual car puts more power to the ground...and not being a slushbox

The gizzmo unit is pretty expensive, and from my research doesn't allow fuel cut (causing the fuel to dump in to the cats if you have them).

I've never came across anyone who has installed it though on a G35 or 350Z, although it has pretty good reviews on other platforms.
