How bad is 2 step?

yea i dont know about y'all but my default launch control is anti-lag. I have it set to 20psi, but if you rice the car at a light -the boost coming off throttle with no compensational intake for the car usually causes a stall.
other thing is sometimes the "muscle heads" need to be put in thier place. the way i see it...if you are a dick and cause me to use my launch control on the street-you see it and hear it and still arent scared...i need to be worried. lol.

It is not a very easy driving technique at a glance for me to accomplish, but you can use this system in track racing. While going into the turn if you are able to keep your foot on the gas without flooring it and holding the clutch, you can build boost in a turn. While coming out of the turn, naturally slip the clutch back out and you should be holding some of the boost you would normally lose without the anti-lag. I have yet to test this. This is per my tuner's understanding of the anti-lag. Someone that has used this with success could hopefully chime in on this one. Very cool system. 
To hold boost through a corner you brake with your left foot while keeping your right foot on the gas (not necessarily floored, though). You can rocket out of corners nice and fast. Works well on the AX course.
Alternatively you could play with rally style antilag, where the ECU retards timing based on throttle position (rather than speed or clutch position like drag antilag) to send unburnt fuel into the manifold to ignite and spool the turbo. It does this when you come into a corner and let off the gas and apply the brakes. It keeps the turbo spooled, so that when you get back on the gas you are ready to rock!

boost braking is what I initially mentioned. that works very well.
have anyone played around with the liftless shifting? where you don't lift your accellerator when shifting, and relying on your boost/fuel cut on the rpm limits that you set, sorta like the anti-lag launch?

i've made over 400 passes with my 2 step, took out my 50 trim and inspected it cause im going to a larger turbo... and there was no visual damage to the turbine and the play was like when i first put it. i did this over 20,000 miles.
