    Alternatives to Racelogic Traction Control?

    I don't know if I'll ever add traction control to my 818, but now that Racelogic doesn't make one any more, does anyone know of a good alternative system?

    One or more of the AEM engine management products has it, but that means you have to run it as your engine management system too.

    If you want to change everything, you can use a DTA stand alone, it will control all of the engine (and many more around) and with proper wheel sensors you can control traction in many ways. However in order to get a precise control you need a lot of sensors per wheel, which increases the costs. And that is when you already have the DTA ECU...

    Pretty much every stand alone has it, however I've had very little luck finding feedback from anyone who's set them up.

    Fast 2.0 has traction control as well.

    Never heard of anyone using it though.

    I bought the race logic system which is going into my car in the next few weeks. I also have the FAST 2.0 system which I won't use. I guess I will have the option should I want to try it later.
