It's just ugly and intrusive, and it still screws up your manual control of rear wheel slip on corner exits when the VDC button is turned off (because "VDC Off" doesn't disable ABLS, but pulling the Yaw Sensor does!)



Tire pressures end up being pretty dynamic based on conditions anyways. Get an IR thermo and shoot them at the center and sides (of the tread face) and aim to get even temps all across the surface, and/or chalk-mark the sidewall up onto the tread to see if you're using it right up to the limit of the tread.



Very - don't blow up your oil pump!
