Kaan W Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 After searching on this particular subject I am not able to find any information on the questions I have. So during the next couple of weeks I plan to remove my ABS and TRAC and all the connected parts ie loom, relays, ecu etc. The questions I have are - 1) With a syvecs fitted will I still have ignition retard during gear change after removing the TRAC ecu, butterfly, loom, pump, everything! And if I do loose it, is this safe for the auto box, even if its a built one? 2) As the TRAC and ABS will be completely removed, can I remove the entire loom and relays for these to reduce clutter, and if it throws up a light can I not just remove the bulb? Any help is much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 The Syvecs only uses the ABS sensors for its traction control facilities. It T's into the loom at the ABS ECU. There is 1 wire for each sensor. You can remove the stock ABS and trac without any effect to the Syvecs at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But does the syvecs retard the ignition for the auto transmission gear change or the TRAC ECU? So in other words if I remove the TRAC and all the components such as ECU, will this give a smooth gear change still as the syvecs controls this or will it be harsh on the box during gear change thus me having to go with a built transmission?

hodge Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 No, the Syvecs controls the spark itself, it has nothing to do with the trac or ABS ECU. Your free to put them in the bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 No, the Syvecs controls the spark itself, it has nothing to do with the trac or ABS ECU. Your free to put them in the bin. So just to confirm removing the trac butterfly, ecu, relays, loom etc will have no effect on the life of the gearbox as the syvecs takes over and still provides a smooth gear change? Sorry if I sound kind of dumb but I just want to know for certain before I start ripping stuff out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 The stock trac doesn't have anything to do with the auto box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) The stock trac doesn't have anything to do with the auto box. So why is it people say that removing the trac is bad for the auto box if the syvecs manages a safe gear change?

Kaan W Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Can anyone confirm my options for removing all the trac gear on a stock or built auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaan W Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 Can anyone please explain to me if I will loose ignition retard if I completely remove the TRAC ecu and all of its components? Or is it the syvecs that controls this? Also is the traction control on the syvecs different to the built in trac control? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
