Default hidden Tq Management

I was looking over EFI lives new software demo version
and noticed a parameter called
"brake tq management"
heres what it says about it,

Brake Torque Management (BTM) is used to reduce engine power by cutting cylinders and reducing the pedal opening on ETC vehicles when your foot is held on the brake in gear and the accelerator is pressed (stalling up the vehicle).
Ive got HPTuners and have looked everywhere trying to find this parameter
with no luck.

Anyone with ideas of its whereabouts?

thanks

This is a saftey feature, no gas with brake...it wreaks havoc on left-foot brakers in autox and road-tracks. Gas pedal makes car go, brake pedal makes car stop...don't use engine to stop car, MHO.

It also prevents you from doing burnouts with the brake pressed down.
A good example of a car that has btm is a Ford Murader... They are horible when you try to do a brake stand...

Usually, i raise that number in all my tunes so it allows them to do a burn out easier.

Mine shows to enable at 200 above idle and disable 0 above idle
Mine feels weak when you stall it up on the line
I assume this is not in HPT since no one can give an answer

Maybe they should look at adding this table to their program
