LS1 Edit TCS thought!
LS1 Edit TCS thought! I was just wondering if it was possible to toy with the TCS parameters in LS1 Edit. I was thinking that if we could then that might be a really cool way to launch an M6 consistantly. Just set it so that it rides on the brink of spinning the tires for a perfect launch every time. Tell me if what I am saying is rediculous or if it makes sense to anyone.

Re: LS1 Edit TCS thought! i think it wouldn't be worth the time. first thing asr does to limit tire spin is retard timing, then close throttle angle, then apply brakes at whichever wheel is spinning. i just think it would slow you down too much. just get some sticky tires.

Re: LS1 Edit TCS thought! As I understand it the TCS/ASR system is controlled by the ABS controller, and not the PCM. The PCM gets an input from the ABS controller as a request to decrease engine output. Truthfully, I think a better use for this input would be a boost timing retard or a nitrous timing retard <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

Verdad Gallardo Re: LS1 Edit TCS thought! On a Y-bod, you have electronic throttle control, which the PCM has control of. On a F-bod, you have a servo motor inline with the throttle cable. Which module is controlling that servo motor?

you're partially right. however, the ebtcm (abs module) cannot control timing or throttle position. therefore, it tells the pcm, "hey, we got a wheel going a little fast back there. why don't you do something about that." to which the pcm replies, "i'll do what i can." then the pcm retards timing. if that doesn't work, it closes the throttle. if that doesn't work, it tells the ebtcm, "f*ck it, i can't do anything. you do it." then the ebtcm would apply a brake. so, i think to make it work, you would have to make the pcm retard timing JUST a hair and not touch the throttle. the problem with this is that the ebtcm is still going to say there is wheelspin, and the pcm will keep retarding timing. IF ls1-edit can mess with abs functions, it MIGHT work.
