Hey everyone, I have a 306 HDi 2.0 PH3 and was wondering, is my car compatible for a Omex Rev-limiter and launch control? Can this device be installed successfully in my car, and if so, how?
Heres the item here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130968616630 Thanks everyone

Many thanks for your help lad.

Why would you rev a diesel to show it off? And who the hell does that impress?
Genuine question, since I spend most of my time trying not to listen to my engine... Disclaimer: The above is not to be taken to heart and is probably a joke, grow up you big girl.

Diesel or no, why not just hold the revs at launch speed with the pedal?
You have all the controls available to you in the car already to get a good launch, and in a low-powered FWD road car you don't need a computer because it's impossible to figure it out using manual pedals, especially given that an optimum launch will be changeable given the different road surfaces and dampnesses. It's your car, but it seems like an awful lot of money to spend on no practical gain.

Proper launch control involves a lot more than just holding the revs..you want some win retard and long injections to get the turbo chooching at full boost from stationary launch.

Was just making the point that it's a fair amount of money for slightly better launches. I suppose spooling the turbo up more would be a bit more fun though.

Been in an R32 Golf DSG - not sure if it had a launch control option or the owner just floored it, but it's like chalk and cheese in comparison to any FWD I've ever been in!

Depends if it plays with the timing and stuff. Proper launch control backs the ignition timing right off so so your almost igniting the mixture with the exhaust valve open, shooting all that heat and gas at the turbo, so in theory your on the spot turbo spooled ready to go, you drop the clutch and f*cking rocket off! Having 4wd just you launch and not light up some wheels lol.
