I doubt it, the cars make power like they should, and within a few moments on the dyno all the systems fault and every light on the dash comes on and you have to hit OK to 4-5 fault messages on the screen.
Although, I did read about one persons dyno experience where they were getting bad numbers from the traction control being on...?

With everything turned off I notice it all the time. Power shifting always feels different. Some times it's feels strong after a shift and then sometimes it's just week and soft. Drives me crazy.

I've even gotten a message on my dash screen saying "advanced track service" after the car gets a little side ways.
That's because the advance track is applying the rear brakes. We've seen this on the dyno. Makes the car feel slow. Pull the 5amp abs fuse under the hood. See how big of a difference it makes. The only thing that lights up on the dash is the light showing advance track and traction control turned off. No check engine light or anything else.

Because we live in a world full of pussies.. :) Ford might be held liable for something, somewhere. :headbonk:

It's not ford, federal law prohibits TCS From being completely disabled.

I'm definitely gong to try this Travis. That's a good find.

Are you pulling the 5amp ABS fuse in position 62? I thought I read somewhere else to pull the 50amp ABS fuse in position 5.

it has an engine!
If you aren't used to no abs, pulling the fuse isn't probably a good idea. Unless it only disables the advancetrac and not abs for the whole car.

I'm guessing no, but will pulling this fuse do anything to the clutch protection that pulls power when it senses the clutch slipping?

I have a Roush supercharger with the Roush tune. I do not believe they tune this out and it makes for some embarrassing launches.
