I'm really tempted to call them up to get this launch control done with this company? Has anyone tried it out yet?

Member Glock 32 has talked to Jags (owner of Singh Autosport) about this also but he's still on the fence about doing it. I've talked to Jags a while back about performance software for my M5 too. Very knowledgeable guy.

The key question I have about this is that I know Turner Motorsport has this offering but they supposedly have to do a hardware change whereas Jags says he doesn't. I'm thinking Turner probably installs a Euro TCU and Jags is able to reprogram the US TCU to do LC.

Thanks for the info. I just checked turnermotorsport website but I couldn't find the hardware. Do you have the direct link? Is there anyone else that could do this besides Singh?

I can't find it on their site but I found this thread: Have anyone tried "European Launch Control" from Turner Motorsport?

Look at post #13 from Will Turner. I haven't read through that entire thread though.

You know I'm just going to try to call them up tommorow but, I did got off with Jaggs. Your right this guy is really knowlegable, I was surprised with with all the extoics he has been programing. He told me he charging $2495 for both the ecu and tcu. I'll keep you posted on which route I will go.

Yeah a friend of mine helps him out once in a while and one weekend they flew down to SoCal to tune a fleet of exotics own from some car collector including Bentley, Aston Martin DBS, Lambo..etc..

Oh and whichever one you end up getting, I'd love to meet up with you to see how it performs. Where in the Bay Area are you located?
