No, but you can turn boost down in first gear to allow for a better launch. It works pretty well too.

the only thing close is the engine tq mgmt feature in the ecu, were you can limit boost in each gear, but thats not really launch control.....doubtful this is possible for our cars or it would have been done by other members by now

"Two Step Launch Control is an adaptation of the Valet Mode RPM limiter. No need for add on boxes, use the PCM to accurately control launching (This option is not compatible with N2O Control)."

efi Alchmy is the name of there shop.

No doubt. I was at the track messing around with mine a long time ago. The first run I spun all the way down the track and pretty much gave up trying. The second run was against a Jetta 1.8T, and I turned the boost down too much. I ran a 10.X in the 1/8th and he beat me after I told him how heavily I was modded at the time. He laughed at me as we got back in line as his best was like a 10.1, and he thought I was slow as ****. I was screwing around with my setting on the laptop while he was laughing though. Next run he goes with the car in front of me, but gets to see my run on his way back. I knocked out a 9.3 this time, and when I showed him the slip he about **** himself. That was a shitty run too with a babied launch.

That wasn't with all my current mods. I was rocking a 2.8" pulley back then when I ran the 9.3. Let's just say the last time I was at the track I grenaded my 3rd gear and still coasted across the traps at 9.4@74mph if I remember correctly. I've never had to shift into 3rd gear as early on the track as I did that day. Sucks too because I really wish I could have finished that run under power!
