How does tune affect traction control

[tplee]

@svc @5star What affect do your tunes have on traction control, off-road mode and a tow/haul mode?

 

[EFD_5924]

None.

I get better traction running the SVC tune. Gives my tires just a little more bite, unless I run 87 octane.

Edit: Yes, I am being a smart ass

With the SVC TUNE (cannot comment on 5star) Traction control (all 3 modes), off road mode, and tow/haul mode are not altered, besides the obvious increase in power and throttle response due to engine tuning.

even with traction control off I can't do extended burn outs and I'm super charged and programed

Are you holding the button? Push it then puch and hold it.

Are you pushing the right pedal? Jk

I know how it is supposed to work, but after thinking about it I need to pay attention to the RPM's I may be hitting the rev limiter, but they just didn't seem that high and it acted the same as if traction control was on, not that I want to smoke the tires off, but you would think 500+ HP you would be able to do a lot more.

I have the Roush set up and when I try I just get a lot of wheel hop and a slight case of whiplash so I know how you feel..

and you never will be able to. the oem traction control is always there, even when turned all the way off. only the 2010 model year was able to. you can do things to disable tc but at the cost of orm and other things. maybe a tune can program certain parameters to increase the time before it kicks in, but im not sure.
