Perhaps the stock traction control could be tuned to suit a street situation? I don't know as I haven't tried. Following that I haven't spent enough time reading the manual to make an opinion and even then it would just be an educated guess. Jet has posted a couple of examples. Maybe he has had some form of experience with this product? Edit: I assume there would be a valid reason (ie stock system is incapable) people use this product rather than a stock ford pcm for boost control.

Ale Member 249 Member For: 13y 2m 20d Posted 24/11/16 10:14 AM Share Posted 24/11/16 10:14 AM Correct, we run one on my mates race car and refilling the Co2 in the car is part of turning the car around between runs. Not for street cars, but when working in unison with 2 step n Slider clutch, makes for good traction control when you get it right 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
