| The AntiLagSystem (ALS) is a mode, where you try to make the turbo spin when switching gears. This should be activated with a switch except for racecars. (Correct me if I'm wrong). ALS can be achieved by retarding the spark very heavily, eg. 10..20crankdegrees after TDC (??) (the distributor might not allow too late, for a 4 cylinder this must be always sufficient, for an 8 cyl also - I guess.) At the same time the idle strategy is different than for normal nonALS streetdriving: |

The AntiLagSystem (ALS) is a mode, where you try to make the turbo spin when switching gears (or at the starting line). This should be activated with a switch except for racecars.
ALS can be achieved by retarding the spark very heavily, eg. 10..30crankdegrees after TDC (the distributor might not allow too late, but we usually distributorless anyway). At the same time the idle strategy is different than for normal nonALS streetdriving: |
| The point in this is to push through much air through the engine to spin the turbo without spinning up the engine to skyrocket RPM at shifting. This does no good for efficiency or the clutch. |
