Theres more than one form of antilag...

The one most used it the rich and retard at idle and when shifting gears. You retard the timing so much that the combustion continues out the exhaust valve and down the manifold making hotter exhaust temps. It probably wouldn't reduce the life of your turbo unless you exceeding what the exhaust temp would be at full load but your engine would get worked from the increased heat.

Another one I've heard of is instead of plumbing back the BOV to the intake its piped into the exhaust manifold.

Theres also another one (I think they mentioned it on top gear) where they dump excess fuel into the exhaust manifold. It hits the sides of the chamber and ignite and generates more heat that way.

I don't think you'd be able to drive the turbo shaft via anything without causing it to vibrate itself apart. The only was I could see it happening is it you have magnets on the compressor wheel and drive it like a brushless DC motor (nothing makes contact with the shaft or compressor).

las i checked they had one of these already, and it was called an eaton.

I am scared to even ask what it was.Some sort of compressor tank i would have thought.

EATON - lets take your clothes off so i can eaton you babe... :laugh:

you can do this with most stand alone ecu's you retard the timing and dump fuel on the area of that map that it runs over when you perform a gear change. for powerfc users this is the very top row in the IGN and INJ map. its load 0 to 1445 on the gtst FC. if you change all that row to 0deg ign it will pop and backfire on gearchange (mine does) and if u want as rich as possible, then edit the same row on the INJ map.

its probably likely to increase the change of ceramic exhaust wheel failure however

    • I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.
    • Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.
    • Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right  
    • Uhhh if anyone sees this - I bought a BRZ years ago, on my fulls soon so back on the market for the R34!
    • Research research research, and tackle the important things first, like the rust, because as a wise old hippie and some crazy horses once said "rust never sleeps" Nothing good comes easy and fast, and nothing that comes easy and fast is typically good
