Default EcuTek Traction Control Modifier

Hey guys,

Has anybody played with the traction control modifier on their Ecutek tune? I'm thinking of taking it to about 50% of their claimed "factory traction". Little nervous to be on the track and experiment with it without knowing how quickly the tail can come loose or not. I once went on the track with NO traction control and spun out. I was still a big rookie then. I have a lot more seat time now. I have a good set of street tires (Potenza S-04 Pole Postion) but those are only forgiving to a certain point. Stock sport suspension.

What do you guys think?


Thanks!

Also interested in this... Ps there is no "sport suspension". It's all the same unless it's Nismo.

Well I've kept mine at 50% and went on a canyon run. Got a little loose once or twice and it came right back into line. Probably saved my life ha ha. It felt good, unlike stupid vdc.
