Thanks man.

I was in my 6 at a stop sign on a desolate road behind my house. The roads were dry and granted my tires were new at the time. I won't say I STOMPED on it but I got on it pretty good. It put my back in the seat but I didn't spin 'um and that's what I was going for. I've kicked the ass end out a couple times in empty parking lots in the rain but I haven't stomped on it yet and really lit 'um up. From the sound of things, I won't have any problem doing that on SP9 if I want to...

Finally bit the bullet and ordered mine. I've been wanting one for a while but haven't had the spare funds to order it. But we got our yearly bonuses today and first thing I did was order it from Vitesse. I definitely can't wait to get it and slap it on. My best time at the drag strip was 14.96 on my stock LS tires last year. With the VTC and some new Hankook tires, I hope to drop that significantly at the next Midnight Mayhem.

Before my IPF tune I drove in SP5. After my IPF tune I drove at SP0 until I relearned the car. Now I'm driving in SP2. What's nice about the VTC, is when the weather gets nasty I go into the EC modes so my throttle is less sensitive.

I'm very interested in someone posting 0-60 or quarter mile times before and after the VTC (or, on various settings). I wouldn't be surprised if it had very little impact on the times, as it seems it "takes" power from the bottom end of your pedal and moves it to the top (so to speak). Then again, it does seem that regardless of pedal-to-throttle ratio, the VTC (on any setting) results in the throttle opening and closing faster (such as not staying open briefly when you lift off throttle, like stock does).

EDIT: I still haven't tried any of the ECO settings.

Stabil Trak and Reduced Power lights on again. Going to dealer tomorrow, will pull VTC first just to avoid dealer issues. Not sure how this is going to work out, had Matt @ FSP do the tune (HP), so time will tell...Most likely an issue with the car and unrelated to anything else..We will see

What's going on with your car as it's been a month since your post?

No. Looking for dealership to tell me what the issue is. As I went to lunch, CEL is still on, but all other lights are off (runs like a champ), also removed VTC for now.
Hope dealer isn't an ass about this ...
