ive been told it uses more petrol is this true lol, and say your doin drags how much time are you likley to loose, or points of a second:d i was allways under the impression that if u were to do drags having better traction off the line would be better,

use the stock TC if you want to end up in a ditch or facing the wrong way at a T junction.

 

IMO -either turn it off and learn to drive the car or fork out for RLTC:)

 

yeah i think thats something ill defo have to think about how much fitted for this ??

I always have it off ;) Ever since I first bought the car, pull out of my road turning right the road was wet, the TC kick in and left the car with no power to pull out and i was in the middle of the road!!! So now I have RLTC which malfunctioned the other week and stall the engine whist driving down the road. So I’m defaulting to my old traction control system is my right foot :)

Standard traction control on mine seems pretty good. If you have you put it on full throttle and its really wet then it was kill lots of the power but if you are careful it just cuts a little power for me. Unless mine has been tweaked in Japan.

Mine's off, but i don't turn it off when i start up, it's off all the time unless i turn it on. Though it doesn't light on the dash, unless i lose traction in which case it tells me and/or cuts power if i had the traction control on.

 

I've heard that when drag racing it's actually bad to have the traction control on as you put a lot of stress through it?
