How to delete TCS?? I want to delete the TCS, what's the best way to do it? I'm also deleting ABS (trailer qween) and will probably get SJM's kit for that.
I just pulled my axles to replace the wheel studs in my Strange 12 bolt and noticed that ring used with the magnetic sensor is in the way, my new studs won't fit in there so I want to permanently remove them, those are part of the TCS right?
TIA,
Dan

I would send SJM a pm about this. I don't know about getting rid of it entirely, the lights would be on the dash unless you pulled the bulbs out. I suppose you could just remove your rings/sensors/harnesses and then just pull the bulbs and that would be your delete?

If you have not rings, the tcs will not work. Anyway, if your going to strictly race the car, your going to want to remove any thing that doesnt go fast. Which includes the tcs controller.

OK I just got through pulling mine about a month ago, if you pull the relay in the fuse box under the hood the only light that come on is the TCS Off light.
Too remove the system from the Throttle body you need to get a throttle cable from a non TCS car, I think it was like $20 or so from the dealership. I also took off my cruise control but if you didn't wan't to do that you could get a cruise cable from a non TCS car as well. Then remove the ugly box off of the valve cover and all the crap attached. then you can remove the sensors and stuff off of the rear. I hear there is also a control computer for the TCS under the dash but I didn't look yet and I'm OK with the TCS Off light since it has been lit all the time before because I never used it...
