Yeah, open up your map and go to the Rev Limits tab/page.

If you want it on all the time, set the RPM Launch Cut to whatever you want it to limit at (say, 4,000 RPMS) and the RPM Launch Resume 100 RPM below that. Your RPMs will bounce between the two at WOT at a standstill. Also set the MPH Launch Disable. This is the speed when the Launch Cut shuts off. Anywhere between 5 & 12 is good.

You have to check the FTL/FTS box as well. Make sure all the other values (Shift Cut & Boost Cut) match your rev limit in the upper left hand corner.

Save. Burn. Go!

WTF?

Your a/c switch will work as wired from the factory. When you turn the switch on, it grounds B5.

My car didn't come with a/c, so I connected a B5 to a switch, then connected the switch to a ground. Now my ecu thinks it is an a/c switch and it will operate my FTL. Hell my idle will even jump up a little bit when I engage it because the car thinks the nonexistant a/c compressor is switching on.

I think I got it...

Blue w/red stripe wire & Yellow w/white stripe wire need to be connected.

FTL/FTS AND A/C boxes need to be checked... BOTH OF THEM.

I never got that ---- to work in my car. I just always left the FTL on.

You also need to have your fan set to 1 for the A/C switch to be active. Tried it out on a number of bins and it works great! I did have it on all the time @ 5,500, but it's a little too high for launching. If I lowered it, then I couldn't do burnouts to warm up the tires... That's why I've wanted to turn it off for burnouts and then engage it at the staging lights.

By the way, I saw a few different posts about having to wire different colored wires together (other than the ones I have listed). If you have the A/C on, fan on and car on, find B5 and start jumping wires. When you find the right combination, you'll notice a change in idle speed. Credit jagojon3 for that one.
