I'm assuming there has to be some kind of benefit since you went through the trouble of having custom hubs made with the older style wheel speed sensor.
Thanks for any info you can offer.

The Bosch production system required communication to a body control module over CAN. Adding the BCM in is a bit tricky. The Delphi system can run more stand alone and had been used stand alone in racing. Newer system are more linked together over CAN. As an example the brake switch and the warning lights are on the CAN bus in a C6 Corvette. So to go from a discreit input (on / off) to a CAN input to the ABS module requires a converter box.
All the newer ABS system have stability, traction, ice and snow modes incorporated. Which means it needs to communicate to the whole car via CAN. Trying to make a OE system stand alone is hard.
Bosch offers a racing stand alone system that is laptop programmable that is great but spendy. That system is very flexible.
