basically when it turned on, an air injector keep the throttle open, air fuel still beeing mixed, turbo is kept on boost, so there is no "lag" when you launch

That is fookin awesome!!! Love the anti lag too!!!

There are a few different anti lag systems but they all work on the same principal. They put unburnt fuel into the hot exhaust system, which obviously ignites - These 'explosions' keep the turbo spinning. Its the extra heat that actually kills the turbo.
