Default TB Bypass Question and ABS Delete

Sorry for the question, but what is the advantage of this? I have a 94 m6. I see the pictures of the 95-97. What is different with the 94?

Sorry to compound this question, but if I do a ABS Delete, will the computer need to be programmed for that or not?

The adavantage of the TB bypass is so hot coolant isn't running through the TB.

If I'm not mistaken your ABS light will light up on your dash when you removed the ABS unit and you cannot get it tuned out. All I did is get behind the dash and remove my ABS bulb from the my gauge. Problem solved.

Hope that helps a little.

The TB bypass is a simple free mod. You wont feel a difference it just prevents some loss of power after the car has be running.

so being that the cooler your engine runs, the more power it makes. i believe it is accurate to say you could actually see a HP or torque gain from this. :-)

Like collier341 said the abs light can not be tuned out it is in the BCM you can either ignore the light or just remove the bulb like he said

I thought only 96+ OBD II came with BCM

My 95 doesn't have a BCM

You can get rid of the abs light by removing the light green wire out of the electronic brake module. It's a silver box under the dash it will be labled as B2 ground that wire and the light should go out.
