Default Top Swappers/Turbo guys I have a question....

Do any of you, while going WOT or heavy acceleration, get the TRAC OFF light to pop on? For some reason, I'm beginning to think it's because the BCM gets the signals from the VSS and hub sensors and calculates the car is accelerating too fast for the capabilities and by default disables the traction control system, every time I accelerate heavy the light pops on and won't go away until I restart the car. Anyone else have the same issue?

this is normal, sorry i know i replied to this a while ago but it muct of never posted up..... turbo monte does this as well, once you start making over a certain amount of power the trac turns off because it was not designed to be able to handle and correct wheel spin with that much power.
