Racelogic Traction Control

It interfaces with engine management, or in the case of a car running a carb, it will I think it can 'drop' cylinders via spark. I'm assuming by braking you mean using the brakes?!?

The LSX pcm's will do the same exact thing. You can limit torque on shifts as needed to keep from spinning tires into gear. It will also limit power as needed based on wheel spin read from the VSS. So if you have a wheel spin problem, you just program in more torque control untill it stops. Most tunes I make, I remove this for people!

Is this the same idea?? If you have an Ls1, you would already have this.

I'm not up on that, how does the LS pcm do it? Is it a timing adjustment? The Racelogic unit shuts off (or I should say interrupts) random injectors.

Same idea, but the factory stuff cannot handle the power output that the Racelogic system can. I could easily overpower the traction control with my twin turbo GTO and several others had the same issue with high hp setups.

The factory ecu uses timing to do the torque management and traction control. Racelogic uses timing and fuel, actually shutting off cylinders randomly. This gives it a lot more control and can handle a lot more power. Plus you can manually adjust the % of slip you prefer up to 20% or so with a rain setting being the most aggressive. It also can be shut off completely in-cockpit if you desire. It works excellently with any forced induction including turbos and since it shuts a cylinder off there's no leaning out.

...and you can add a launch control module
