Hey I am looking to add traction control to my corvette. The reason being that I have added a 540 alu Bb with efi all the works done to it.
Yes I know 750bhp to 1300kg is mad but it's ones a month drive.
Any ways it come to the point where it's getting tuned and thinking I need some kind of traction control
So my question is Where do I get traction control from ?
I add a picture of my ride been I. The garage for 4 years now. Thx for the help
use your money to go to drivers school at local road race course. you'll have more fun with your car and find out it's pretty easy to control traction with your throttle foot.
Good point :@) I have been racing for 8 years both bikes and cars, but that's on the track. On the road there a lot more things to take care beside my self.
Thx for the effort :@)
Traction control for a six pac was easy, disconnect the linkage to the end carburetors. The same can be accomplished with a single four barrel by disabling the secondary throttle linkage.
There are more than a few 750hp corvettes built and raced over the past fifty years (nothing special other than don't hand the keys to a seventeen year old Valet).
Is you are serious, hall effect sensors can be added to the drive and half shafts, and a controller can kill spark in a random manner if the speed differential exceeds limits with a front rotor sensor. It's crude, it's power control, but as effective as the spark retard common to index class drag racing.
Does your car retain the C2 suspension or has it been converted to use the popular C4 stuff?
If it has C2 susp., retrofitting traction control would be a significant engineering and fabrication challenge.
C4? More doable since later C4 parts had provisions for wheel rotation sensors.
True Jim but, the C4 traction control is worthless, doesn't work for crap on the track and is annoying on the street. It can activate just pulling out from a stop light doing a 90 degree turn on to the highway if there's a little dirt/sand on the road.
After I start my DD C4, it's the first thing I turn off.
