Launch Control after adding HP

My experience is that the launch control does not really work after 100+ HP is added. The car just breaks the rear loose almost as much as without launch control engaged.

Wondering if anyone has found a way to reflash the ECU to adjust the launch parameters to provide better control.

"Launch Control"....forgive me guys...but are you talking about the traction control ??? The little yellow car with squiggly lines behind it? I find that MY stock C6 doesn't work too well... I can imagine after the A&A SC I put on it.. !!!

Lingenfelter makes an after market launch control module. I plan on installing this on my 07Z soon.
