Re: Torque management Many M6 owners wonder the same thing about the effects of torque management. From what I've seen, it won't hurt anything to remove it.
Here's how to disable it (from ls1edit.slowcar.net):
1. Go to transmission -> A4 Shift Firmness -> Torque reduction and zero out the table
2. Trans Cal -> A4 Shift Firmness -> Upshift Torque reduction - zero out the values
3. Engine -> Ignition -> Max Torque. Set it to 1000
4. Engine -> Ignition -> Torque Reduction. Zero it out.
One other item to mention is that I've seen discussions centering around the Max Torque setting. Ken (from Carputing) stated that the max value shouldn't exceed 639.

Re: Torque management Hmmmm but what about us turbo 400 guys what do we do because I don't have any sensors going to my trans? Oh and how dose the car know if I'm in gear or not or dose it just think I'm in park or N the whole time? It used to be a six speed if that'll help.
