Default Wiring in clutch switch???

Ok so I have an 01 ITR that I'm building for a strip car and I've been building a custom chassis harness for it. My question is how do I wire the clutch switch into the ecu so I can utilize my anti-lag and flat foot shifting? I'm running and aem v1 ecu with a chase bays engine harness

Unfortunately I don't have anything to contribute to this thread. I am curious though what the benefit of such an instAll would be. Can you elaborate or explain?

Is it to have some what of a paddle shift type system or am I way off base?

I removed all the factory wiring and fuse panels and I'm building a harness from scratch to eliminate all the things I don't need. But I need a clutch switch to activate my launch control

The switch supplies a ground, when clutch is disengaged, to the starter relay, [in the stock wiring harness] what does the launch control need need to see when the clutch is disengaged or does it need to see something when the clutch is engaged, keeping in mind the CIS only operates at the bottom of the clutch pedals "throw".

This is what I found...
Disable Anti lag
This mode will disable (turn off) the anti lag if active. Most common use is to connect to a switch that is actuated by the Clutch pedal or thumb operated switch. When pedal is release, the switch will be actuated thus disabling the anti lag.


If I am understanding that it needs a switch that is turned on when then the clutch is released, the CIS is turned off when the clutch is released so it will not work for you.

You may be able to replace the CIS with a CIS from a Teg with CC, [cruse control] it it is a 2 pole switch, one pole supplies the starter relay with a ground when clutch is stepped on the other pole supplies the CC with a ground as long as clutch is not stepped on, sound like that is what you need.

It does not say if the switch needs to supply a ground or power. 94
