Disabling ABS I have tried to search and what I have come up with is if you pull the ABS fuse you will have 50/50 brake bias, which is no good.
I am not going to pull the ABS out of the car, so if you want to recommend that, please don't. When I go to the track I put on MTs which are about 2" larger in diameter than the fronts. I want to know if I can fault the ABS system so I do not lose bias control, but still leave ABS inoperable. Last time I pulled a wheel speed sensor, but it reset every time I restarted the car. Not sure what that does to the bias though, but it stopped well at the track.

I think as soon as that ABS INOP light comes on, the bias goes 50/50...I've driven a car like this on the street, and while it didn't stop the best, it certainly did stop, so I would just keep doing what you are doing if you are adamant about not getting rid of ABS.
I was too...after I did the ABS delete, I was like "oh ****." At that point, there was no going back, and thankfully it turned out well.

Mine is not a DD either, I guess I would have to try to drive a car without it to see how it reacts before I go doing it on mine. I know some guys with it removed.
