What I guess happens is the OEM sensors especially in the front give an improper speed with the flexing of the front hub?

The factory ABS unit cannot take more that 4 speed inputs unless theyre supplementing the oem ones or upgrading them to better sensors.
Our ABS unit seems to be the same as some Subarus of the same year.
So it makes me wonder the specifics.

I was under the impression it was issues with the YAW's sensitivity more than improper wheel speed.
It's when both front speed sensors or both rear are showing different speeds under braking. Like the car is on ICE. It kicks the ABS system into thinking the car is on ice during a lockup. I am not sure how it is programmed into the ABS control module. There is a problem with the algorithm they are using from the factory.

So from my research I've noticed the ABS needs at least two sensors for our speedometer to work. It could all really be software interpretation however if they're adding extra sensors it's possible they're supplementing the ABS unit with a more finer tooth count etc

I too dislike the ABS engagement of these cars. I was under the impression ECUTEK's adjustable traction control capabilities would help it's over reaction by softening it's traction control to one a bit more decent.

I turn the traction control off. I never ever use it. It's a throttle cutting beast.
I still need to do the Yaw sensor switch to turn that crap off too. I just need to wire it up. My switch is already in place.

Yup, I just got to cut a wire and splice it in. I will get it done. I hate that crap.
