We've all seen it at Drag Race meetings. A typical pro stock car pulls up to the christmas tree, stages and just as the lights start counting down the engine hits full noise seeming to bounce off a rev limiter. In fact, the driver has just pushed the throttle pedal absolutley flat to the floor and he doesn't lift off until the car passes the finish line because the engine has a launch control and flat shift system installed. Once a feature only available to professional race teams or those willing to install a $3,000+ after market engine management system.


Flat-Shift can eliminate those frustrating and sometimes embarrassing "bog downs" off the line by perfectly matching revs to your pre-set limit every single time. It also allows full boost to be retained on up shifts as your right foot never has to leave the floor because the Flat-Shift cuts engine power for the fraction of a second that you have the clutch pedal down meaning your engine has no time to bleed boost pressure between gears.
Thanks bro. Goodbye clutch.

Oh BTW you wouldnt want to leave it on all the time because it makes daily driving not fun.
