Why did they attach a machine gun to their car?

Totally agree, horrible noise.
I wondered this tooI thought Anti-Lag was to keep the Turbo spooled so you have.. well, No Lag!
That thing goes bang bang bang bang, then still takes an ice age to spool up
however it does make me grin

Indeed.
This is back firing on over run and not anti-lag, hence the lack of it when spooling and then fireworks when he lifts off.
Mine (non turbo m20) pops on over run loads but doesn't spit flames or sound like a gun going off, thankfully!
some very misinformed people on here
That IS anti lag and that turbo is spooling very quick once its been activated
thats nearly 700hp at just 1.9 bar theres a BIG turbo on that 2.8 lump
as for lack of it when spooling anti lag doesn't work when spooling!! the whole point of it is to keep the turbo spooling when your OFF the accelerator

It isn't?
yeah except its not turned on at the start of that video
im just gonna lol if you dont think that bmw has proper anti lag and leave it at that
It doesn't. Fact. Might be putting a lot of fuel through but no air is getting through. The fact its not making any boost off throttle is pretty darn telling.

To me it sounds as though it has anti-lag from about 40 seconds?
Thats the rocket system developed from the prodrive WRC cars, antilag in its purest most effective form, however i dont doubt that the antilag system used in the BMW up top although a tad crude is reduce spool up times.

Looks like it does a couple of times when the engine rocks.
