Couldn't quite figure out if that was you or not in the video ...

I did notice that there were NO warning/CEL lights ... Awesome Tune.

Didn't mean to get too too down on the ps2's ...

I'm on my 3rd set of rears (285's/295's) and the 2nd set of fronts.
Managed about 12k miles on the rears ... about 1 season's worth.
Stuck with them to avoid changing all 4 at once.
The car was my daily driver for about 3 years.

With the power you're making I don't think any tire is going to give you the traction solution you need.

On the Stillen SC'r I was making 420 whp and still able to light them up into 3rd. with the VDC off.

I did install the RaceLogic Traction Control in an attempt to tame the traction issue.

It works really well for normal/spirited driving...but the jury is still out for the dragstrip (at least for me that is).
The Launch Control feature is iffy and damn near useless.

The digital controller is not user friendly and takes forever to program and experiment with...but once it's set it is good to go.
And it does it's job well ...
Once you have it dialed in you can safely womp on the throttle and it will keep the car straight...even in the rain...and within reason of course.

You can also (permanently) turn off the factory VDC in the UpRev tune, which is good.
The Traction Control will then default to the RaceLogic.

The RaceLogic can be ordered with a plug and play harness which makes installation easier.


Food for Thought
