No sure you need anymore launch control on 150bhp than your foot. Its not exactly gonna set the world spinning backwards.

I wouldnt waste your time with launch control! I had two ST's and spent alot on my red one. Had full Miltek including 4-1 manifold, cossie inlet, piper cams, magnicores and a performance panel filter. Combine this with hours of mapping and it achieved 193, 188, 189 on 3 sepperate rollers. Was a giggle to drive until it rained. Then the thing was pretty useless until i changed the tyres. All the work was done by Pumabuild.

Thanks for all the comments guys!!
Definetly looking into getting those stripes off like you have all suggested :)!
With relation to the launch control system, I want it more for the rev limiter system that it has... The ST u get to the limiter and the car just dies sort of thing so that's really y I'm looking into it. :)!

The brick wall of a limiter is removed with the re-map, mine was on both cars mate so its a needless purchase.

you shouldn't ever really get to the limiter so its still a bit pointless
