Not an issue. A single pop every once in a while won't do any damage. It's not like antilag where boost is being built up and dumped.Noob question.. Just sold my Ktuner v2 for a flash pro (which arrives today). I read there could be misfires with higher hp applications. Since my CTR is stock aside from a PRL HVI, is it safe to use the TC on otherise unmodded car? SInce it is igntion based and can "pop", I dont want to damage my cat or any other components. Also, should I start off with the factory TC settings or change to a different %? My main issue is 2nd gear 20-50 like most people. I will be running the 93 basemap tune.
Thanks
I have experienced that pop often on 1st and 2nd gear especially... i lose boost when it pop and the car jerk when it pop... it is when i have full throttle open..Not an issue. A single pop every once in a while won't do any damage. It's not like antilag where boost is being built up and dumped.
The popping isn’t a sign of anything going wrong, it’s just a side effect of how the traction control works.I have experienced that pop often on 1st and 2nd gear especially... inlost boost when it pop and the car jerk when it pop...
Any advice on this?
My car is fob and custom tune...
Is it the oem VSA that i need to switch off?The popping isn’t a sign of anything going wrong, it’s just a side effect of how the traction control works.
You will naturally lose boost because the engine isn’t putting out much exhaust gas when the ignition gets cut.
Gotta get better tires, have the traction control tweaked better, or lower the torque request.
Hey since your in the GTA - try it out during heavy snow, it'll pop all the way to redline and it'll take a good 20 minutes to reach to 7000rpm with all the retard going on LOLIs it the oem VSA that i need to switch off?

I am on my snow tires now... all the power is pretty much useless... i detuned the car so it wont spin wheels on daily drive basis..Hey since your in the GTA - try it out during heavy snow, it'll pop all the way to redline and it'll take a good 20 minutes to reach to 7000rpm with all the retard going on LOL
