Uprev + 6MT: Can TC be manipulated?

Ha ha, I guess with almost double the stock WHP I’m more worried about breaking loose when I really don’t want to. Perhaps thinking that TC would make that condition more safe is a false hope?

I get that a lot of people want it off. In my build I’m aiming for a vehicle with tremendous capability but also it’s ability to control that. I have another high power build but notably it’s an AWD Subaru so I have double the footprint to put down that power. Day to day I want to use as much of its capabilities as I can without losing overall control. Aka, I recognize that building a high power platform makes it much more challenging for a driver to know the limit at any given point in time - especially at higher speeds when response times must be faster in order to maintain control.

Then you picked the wrong platform lol. Boosted Z's are a handful even for experienced drivers

You're going to have to compromise somewhere. Find that sweet spot that works for you. Ecutek features will probably be the most help to you. It will likely take some testing and patience for you to get there. There is no right answer here.

Also, controlling the car shouldn't be an issue when driving responsibly on public roads. If TC is intruding other than when giving it a bit too much off the line, take it to the track. Seat time and throttle input practice is all you should need anyway.

Yes, that is a false hope. Get the correct supporting mods to go with whatever you are building. Then, learn how to drive it. In a high hp car you always have to be ready for the unexpected. They will surprise you when you least expect it. 700whp is not too bad. Go above that and it goes up exponentially.
