How does this work?

It goes between the clutch master and slave, and can be wire to a switch or into the Ecu. Basically it slows down the clutch release when launching.

Whoa, what car?
I'm interested in the device, does it work well? Any negative side effects at all?

Quoting MellowVR4:
Where do the wires hook up to?
you need to power the solenoid when you want the launch control....and cut power to it to allow normal clutch operation for shifting gears. If you were to leave the solenoid closed at all times.....every time you went to shift gears...the clutch will slowly engage and likely just go up in smoke and never grab. That's assuming you have the leg power to push the pedal in and disengage the clutch pushing the fluid through that needle valve! (bet you can't and grind the hell out of your trans)
Hook this up to your ECU to an optional output and have it cut power when speed >10mph so it's off mid 1st gear. Have it cut power at

Sorry guys I sold this earlier this week.
Though if anybody is looking to install one, what Nate said in his post is spot on. You can use a momentary switch on the steering wheel, mount it on the right side as you let go when doing a 1-2 shift. Gets hard to setup when using a staging brake depending on the ECU.
