I am not sure if there is a way to do this but I am betting if possible it would cost a fortune and would be better to just exchange your car for one with traction control, why do you want it anyway?

I'd keep the one you've got, TBH.  There's nothing more infuriating than having the electronics cut the power when you don't want it to.  If I had TC I'd be permanently switching it off, LOL!!  :laugh:

The trick is to use 80/85% of the throttle in first gear, then 90/95% throttle in 2nd, then 3rd gear onwards....... unleash hell!!! :grin:

Certainly is, I have Racelogic launch/traction control fitted to my car and it works like a dream.
