i've never heard of valves dropping from revving a motor to 5000rpm.

what i usually do is wire the 12v+ side of the solenoid to one of the spare HS outputs on the ems, and use that to control when the solenoid finally gets powered on. i usually set the hs output to turn the solenoid on over like 10% throttle and 1500 rpms, that way you never have to hear it.

and if you fubar valves on the 2step you're doing something seriously wrong.

antilag for a few sec to launch the car wont hurt anything at all... now if you're a moron and hold it on the antilag for 20 mins showing off, then yes you will **** shit up.

Devin Pearce from aem set it up that way when he tuned mine. It means you will be building boost off the wastegate spring only when using a two step setup. I think that should be plenty of boost for off the line but you definitely dont want to run a two step on the stock valve train.

That makes since.

I still don't see where that is an option though.
