It'll spin 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the wet or dry with ease. Just want to make sure its not going to freak out the electrics. Cheers Dan

Going through a malwood clutch and kaaz 2 way locks up pretty hard.

What happens, if anything, if you constantly spinning with tc enabled? What will it damage? Think I asked this once before.

If your at wot in a manual the oil pump gears go BANG. If you have power turn tc off. Edited 01/02/12 09:49 AM by Paulie2256

The oil pump revs will drop just as quick. The pressure blows the gears to bits. Edited 01/02/12 09:54 AM by Paulie2256
harvo Member 50 Member For: 15y 5d Posted 01/02/12 09:57 AM Author Posted 01/02/12 09:57 AM I was thinking along those lines too but I think I'll leave it on untill it stops raining and keep it off boost. Just out of intrest ive noticed when it dose brake traction it always goes to the left? Just the camber of the road or could it be something else?Cheers guys
