Hey Matt, read where you were trying to get the traction control setup but had some issues. Did you ever figure it out? Also are you using the alternator controls in the Gold Box or swap to a different alternator? I picked up an Explorer rear with the sensor in the center section and it would be sweet to be able to use it for the traction control settings.

they did figure out the alt control with the 2 wire alt. im running it on fixed duty didnt get to test out the control yet.

i wasnt able to get the stock ABS sensors to read in, because they are VR and i need a hall pickup basically

i was going to buy the 35-45 dollar hall effect sensor and put it on the wheel studs in teh front and set it up like that,

then just combine that with the 80e VSS output sensor. and run traction control off that

How is that tablet dash working out Matt? If it's going well, maybe it would be a decent topic for a quick little video??

Ive used this on a couple MS3 installs with success.

Also, i had the best luck running progressive spark cut on my turbo cars. When i used progressive retard, it basically acted like a anti lag and slammed right into boost cut.

Try the pit lane limiter as rolling antilag. It works great.

PS, id get the 12v one.

^^^ What he said.

This may be the fix, less than $50 total, two vr channels in, two digital 0-5 DC out. If I was smart at circuit boards I would have installed it inside the gold box, but I was scared so I put it in an external box...

Cool!

My son picked up a '05 5.3 with a 4L80e out of a van the other day, complete with harness and pcm. We believe it is an early Gen4 internals with a drive by cable TB. Trying to convince him we need to keep it to turbo it for his C10. He want to sell it for double what he paid, which he could get around here....

If you care about flow, the Hooker maxflo's are one of the quietest/best flowing. Could run a stock truck muffler w/ another dump too. I run a little 2" pipe off my 4" down pipe and close the 4" dump when street driving. No muffler or "exhaust system" required. Very quiet and light weight!

Excellent!

So you are pulling timing with the traction control?

You could use a bit more BOV it sounds like.

Quiet turbo cars are my fave. I second the Maxflow. Go big a case as you can fit, you will like it.

Ahh, the un-assuming masses all around...

Thank you for such an informative vid!
