I did it! Heres a link to MRC's video. I am the first to trial MRC's new Launch control and flat shift. Picking her up Saturday :)

After alot of pain after a ham fisted mechanic busted my engine loom, MRC came out trumps and sorted it and supercharged it while it was there.

I believe the numbers are 604BHP and about 458ftlb torque.

Thats with a 200cell cat so a few more to release one day.

This thread needs in-car on-road footage! How do you adjust the LC?

Doug said its something like tap the brake twice then the clutch 3 times, rev to where you want it and tap the brake again. I think that is right.

Yes I have Go Pro ready to go so will get some at some point. It would be rude not to do a darford tunnel run too huh.

I was hoping that'd be a supercharged car. What clutch are you using to manage the launches?

Hmm, quite fancy that, don't think my clutch would be too happy though.

Rough cost?

The clutch is the LOBOS sachs 6 paddle option with dual mass delete. Its nasty for daily driving trust me on that. Heavy and on/off.

Price wise I don't know yet I haven't paid them.

Hmm... maybe a little extreme for just showing off every once in a while then.

Sounds immense. I kinda see how the launch control works, but what about the flat shift?

For the puny amount of miles I do in it I can't say I care about how awful the clutch is. I think the awkwardness of pulling away adds to the enjoyment when I do drive it.

Flat shift, basically keep your foot planted on the throttle when changing gear, I believe it cuts ignition but leaves fuel so that when you come off the clutch there is no delay. If I went full precat (got 200cell) it would flame nicely.
