I am installing a traction control.... With it installed...I could floor it at high boost and still have full control. I have another car with the same TC I am going to install in the G .. Which has over 600whp ... You could floor it on wet or dry roads and not lose control.
...
So videos of my car will be boring

are you just adjusting boost levels with wheel hub spin, or rpms or something(i guess in that case you arent hitting full boost until you get traction)...other ems systems can do this...

wheel slip sucks, and I'd hate to see that anyhow.
i wanna see how fast that tach jumps and the mph needle pegs

It reads Rpm, wheel spin, wheel position. And a few other things. Its almost the same one that was just aproved for use in Formula1....
I did have the RaceLogic.... But Sharif found out that it would not work with the injectors that I have..... So it was returned.
Someone owed me a favor and sent me this not for street use item
it's a full computer by itself....

I was seriously considering the Race Logic unit. I have HKS 1000 cc fuel injectors, so I'm assuming that it won't work on my car either.

I don't know much about trac control setups so forgive my ignorance if this is something simple, but is this a plug and play setup or is it something that has to be setup or adjusted. Also is the trac control setup you have coming something for sale kor not cause I'd be interested in it if its for sale or if I can duplicate it. BTW I'm not mechanically iliterate but just never looked into these setups before.
The RaceLogic is around $2000....the other one is a race team based setup that's not available to the public.... Well atleast not yet... And I am sure it wlll be in the 15-20K range.

FYI, RaceLogic dropped their pricing since you bought yours. In June I was quoted $741.47 directly from RaceLogic.

That price is without the digital control.... They have many different models...it'd like buying an Fcon... You have the base price.... And then you have the loaded price.

315 would fit.... But 305 is what Yokahama will send me..... I am lucky to get 305... Because 295 was the widest they were willing to go.

wider isnt what matters, tread compound is what matters at that power level. guys are going 7-8sec 1/4 miles with narrower tires and more HP (the 10.5 classes)
I'd be interested to know what tires IP had on during their video. I'd bet DR's.
Ahh and I thought you going to give Sharif a heart-attack with "hey install this and make it run right in 2 months" Does the new TC setup have its own set of sensors and all that jazz? at 20k i bet it would. Will it assimilate into the FCON?

I would be guessing if I answered the TC sensor question..... All I was told is that it can work alone or work with existing setup. I was told it does read the ABS... Steering position.... Pedal position...wheel speed... RPM.... And so on...
Alot of my friends in racing are aware of this car.... I was at a testing in FL and mentioned the dyno results and asked them for help with traction because the RaceLogic fell through.

he Advans are not R compound are they? a same sized or smaller R888 or RA1 would grip better than any width street tire. But I assume you have a sponsorship deal with yokohama?
thats pretty slick it ties in with the stock sensors. Checking up on some of those aftermarket TC setups will make for some good after dinner reading.

I assume Chris was talking for a road course where wider is better... Because he knows that I don't drag race.
