    As long as you have ABS you should be able to.Why do you want it?With a blower it's not the best thing to do.

    Probably not possible without replacing the ECU and other electronics on the car.

    Bro,


    Here is the solution to your problem. Don't ever let your girlfriend drive your car. If she is you wife then that's another issue.
    If she just has to drive it and you can not say know just pop the hood and adjust your throttle cable so she only has 1/4 to half throtte.

    There is a company that makes it, but I remember that it is expensive (over 1000$). I will see if I can track it down if that isn't too rich for you.

    :lol: That's true I should just do that. She isn't my wife so I guess that she shouldn't drive it. And IF we do get married I could just buy her a car that does have it. Thanks...

    If you wouldn't mind looking it up that would be cool. I don't think that would be to expensive, because my dad was talking about it last night to me, and how he wants it just for a safety thing..

    http://www.racelogic.co.uk makes the aftermarket traction control system I was talking about.

    The price is about $1,150, and the model that will do Launch control, Traction control, Variable slip control, Shift light, and Data Logging is closer to $1,800.
