Anti lag don't has to be bad for your engine just get yourself a turbo can 1000 degrees celius or more.
They do fuck up your engine. And as an example - the Seat Leon Supercup, with the 250hp 1.8T engine. During the first season everybody was using the bang-bang or "anti-lag" system... but after so many engines blown up - they switched it off since then... and I've never heard it again
Anti lag and seat don't go together.

You need to use a special turbo shaft to handle the heat the anti lag setup makes.
