    Torque management

    I'm working on the shifting of my 2016 GMC Sierra with the 6.2L and the 8 speed automatic. There is some table or value that ninja engages the traction control if I do a burnout and the back tires get over 25 mph. Where is this feature disabled or modified?

    Thanks.

    Would it help if I attached my tune?

    Here is my tune. I've messed with the PE and a couple of shift rpms and mph speeds.

    Have you tried increasing the "max Torque" value under Engine->Torque Management->General - under the "Traction Control System" heading? I'm not sure, but increasing this might help? To me, it sound like this value dictates when full-on traction control kicks in.

    Like I said, not positive - but worth a shot.

    Also, are you "disabling" traction control via the standard controls in the car (if possible). Even my V6 Impala lets me "disable" traction control and Stabilitrak. I use quotes around disable because it doesn't completely disable it but makes it much less sensitive...

    So far, nothing has worked. Does anyone know where to adjust the stabilitrak so it doesn't come in at 25 mph?

    Not possible, the abs/stabilitrak is not part of the PCM controls.

    You can pull the ABS fuse or wire in somesort of kill switch for one of the ABS sensors so it pops the light on.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
