Default Ecutek traction control

Anybody have any insight on how this feature work? Read that you can control how much spin you want to allow. Is this something you as the driver can always change without needing the tuner?

Yup, you get to control it...go to SpecialtyZ's Facebook page and there is a video on how it works!

Works the same way but you just use the toggle on the cruise control. You push up on it and the needle on the oil temp gauge will move to the point were it is set at and if you want to change it then you toggle up or down to the degree that you want the tc to kick in! It's the easiest of all the functions you have control over.

Thanks! Does it allow you to launch better even though you dump clutch and floor it lol

That depends on you lol. If you dump it you will roast your tires and it will really slow you down if you have it all the way on. What I think is optimum is to drop the clutch just enough to spend an have the tc set at a reasonable lie stting just enough to slow the wheels so you gain traction and go. It's about finesse from a stop. But between the lc and the tc it's a lot easier to do.
