IMPORTANT NOTES ON YOUR ANTI-LAG VALVE
-
Turbosmart accepts no responsibility whatsoever for incorrect installation of this product which is potentially hazardous and can cause serious
engine damage or personal injury.
-
Antilag produces excessive heat in the exhaust system and may shorten the life of your exhaust manifold and turbo.
-
Consult your local specialist before setting your setting your antilag valve, setting antilag levels beyond your engines capability may result in
engine or turbo damage.
-
Use only high-quality fittings ensuring maximum sealing reliability. Optional Turbosmart fitting kit available.
Turbosmart's ALV valve is recommended for race applications only.
-
-
It is important during the setup of the eGate, that some precautions are taken to ensure that the unit does not malfunction. Firstly, the output
from the ECU should be limited to 15%. As well as an inline fuse (5A-10A) or breaker to protect the eGate. Once correct operation has been
verified the fuse and limits can be removed.
RECOMMENDATIONS
-
Always disconnect motor wires before removing the top cap of the actuator
-
Allow for adequate cool airflow around electronic actuator.
-
DO NOT Mount the antilag valve so that the electronic actuator is less than 100mm from a heat source.
-
DO NOT wrap the body of the antilag valve with exhaust wrap.
-
Fitting your Gen V antilag valve may require fabrication or modification to your exhaust manifold. Turbosmart recommends that your
antilag valve is fitted by an appropriately qualified technician.
-
Fitting the ALV to your turbocharger system introduces fresh air into the exhaust system post engine and therefore air fuel ratios will show as
lean.
-
Turbosmart recommends that antilag settings are set using a dynamometer and not on public roads.
-
Turbosmart recommends that a boost gauge be permanently fitted to the vehicle.

    HOW TO USE The Turbosmart anti lag valve is a brand-new way to drive aftermarket Anti lag valve valves, it involves using an electric motor to drive the position of the valve, this allows far greater control over the valve during its actuation on the car, this paired with an aftermarket ECU controlling it, allows for plenty of new and safer ways to anti lag strategies on your car.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WHAT’S NEW Our Electronic Anti-Lag Valves are a direct fit upgrade to all 5th-generation Turbosmart Anti lag valves and feature our unique collar- locking system, variable motor cap and base, strap-type V-band clamps, liquid-cooling, 1/8″ NPT ports. Control With the introduction of the electronic motor to drive the Anti lag valve, a new level of control is now available to antilag control strategies, there is a wide range of tuning strategies that can be implemented to better control how antilag is operated.

    For best results tubes should be plumbed into the turbo manifold as close to the exhaust port of the engine for maximum efficiency. Turbosmart Weld flanges are designed to accept 19mm (3/4”) Turbo pressure tube, large diameter tubes with the least amount of restriction will source achieve a higher amount of usable energy in the manifold.

    Full bridge configuration like that of an electronic throttle drive circuit, see your ECU supplier documents for suitable connections. Turbosmart recommends the anti-lag valve should be driven by an External dual H-Bridge, that is at least 20A for seamless operation.
  • Page 8: Calibration

    It is important to set up the correct limits manually with anti-lag override in a clockwise direction with your fingers until the valve. Turbosmart recommends that the valve is only ever mechanism stops rotating. In this position the valve should be driven electronically to the maximum valve position of 90%.
  • Page 9: Sensor Linearisation

    Driving the valve to 100% will cause increased wear on Sensor Linearisation components such as the electronic motor as it tries to force the valve to completely open. Due to the nature of the poppet valve design, the flow characteristics are nonlinear. In some cases, it may be Adjust the calibration to allow plenty of overshoot to the end stops advantages to correlate the linear sensor output to match the flow of the valve, recalibrate as above once you have good control of...

    3/8” square drive Figure 12 – Collar Tool Turbosmart provide the Gen V Anti lag valve in a set orientation, in some applications it may be advantages to clock the actuator to allow clearance for fittings and wiring. Locate the slave collar between the electronic actuator and the body underneath the heatshield, A tab on the heatshield will be folded down into a groove on this collar.
  • Page 11: Troubleshooting

    Poor antilag valve actuation – Ensure wiring is correct, check for dirt and smooth operation by manual over-ride, ECU that is driving the valve may not be set up correctly. Wraparound of signal on position sensor – Turbosmart Pre “time” every sensor, contact Turbosmart if this occurs. Antilag valve seized – Remove cap and manually move valve feeling for resistance.
