Nek minute...wanted to buy...turbo.
Ran it on a previous Evo 6 RS I tracked with a mate. It sounded great! 
It was set up by SAS in Sydney using an Autronic.
Never really had that much of an issue with it, as the car wasn't street driven and therefore we didn't put many kms on it.

Is it really needed on a street driven car apart from the wank factor?
The RVR will no longer be a daily driver, it will be a weekend track day oriented car maybe a few local hillclimb events they run at mt cotton up here in brisbane etc. And would be made to be either on or off it still will be running rego to get to and from its events assuming nothing breaks. The local hillclimb track is very tight and would benefit greatly from AL

Will be interesting to see you attempt a very tight track in something that handles like a fridge on a removalists trolley.
Bear in mind that anti-lag creates a surging effect which influences the way the car feels. This can undermine your confidence if it accelerates a little when you don't want it to.
So you may find changing to the right turbo is a better use of money than setting up anti-lag.

+1^ for these guys Taz. Sage words indeed. No one is trying to rain on your parade by not recommending AL (as tempting as it is!) but there is a lot more merit in just getting the setup right rather than compensating for one that is not. If you know what I mean. Best of luck with the hillclimbs, would be fun as hell in an RVR!!
I have had anilag available on my ECMLink for many years now. But I never activated it!
~15 years ago, when I had my own shop, I sold 16G turbo to a Gallant VR4 rally driver, who used antilag. He wanted to try out $600 turbo instead of $4k turbos they were normally using. He said it only lasted a few stages! He would have been happy if it lasted the entire event, but he wasn't that lucky.
