I bought one.. ended up selling it to my mate due to the fact i wasnt ready to cut any wires on my new car..

We fitted it to his audi s4 and its a beast ! Love the launch control however i cant see the launch control being too good with our FWD cars

I have one on mine, works really well.. The flat shift feature is good, almost no boost loss through the gears which really helps with the bg turbo etc..

With proper tyres you would need launch control with the FWD.. Nicely set up FWD cars with slicks will run 1.7 60 foot times which is as quick as any 4WD car.. But as you say on road tyres it would be fairly pointless..

Fitting is very simple, Andy at ACR did mine in 40 mins, you would hardly know its there.. Although there wouldn't be many people I would trust to do the install..

On a side note, this amused me quite a bit..

So thats £480 for a £120 WOT box with a fancy sticker and fitting.. Hmm.. Ok then! lol.. Got to love it! The really funny thing is that lots of people have bought them haha!
