Looking at the schematics, the whole ABS system is negated which would set a code...

I pull it every weekend. Disables torque management, and ABS. Leaves ABS , brake and BAC lites on in dash display. Runs like a bat outta hell. Put it back in on Mondays. It may set code, but it dont show it does.

I just pulled #17 in my 06 Mag R/T and the car ran like sh$t. I had to pull over and put it back in because it wouldn't shift. Does this work for 2006's. Mine was manufactured 6/06.

Ive heard about different reactions. Ive heard some it worked some it didnt. It may only work on 04/05 models, and maybe even only Magnums. Unplugged on mine it would chirp tires between shifts. Absolutely wont do that with it in. I have since bought Superchips Flashpaq though.

Yea, it doesn't work worth a damn in my mag. Build date on her is 6/06. My Flashpaq should be here Tuesday, hopefully I get some good results for that. How do you like your superchips strippedhemi? I have aflowmaster 40 series catback system, and a drop in K&N, which sounds great by the way. Will I get a good seat of the paints feel after the SC?

I noticed a big difference in power, shifts still have some to be desired, but I can live with it. Im used to 727 torqueflight At WOT it goes to 6200 now. I still havent had the need for 92 octane though. In Ohio formula I guess 89 is OK. Ive had no detonation with good gas. I like shutting down ESP too at least in summer. It is nice in winter on snow. I set everything back to stock in Nov.

Pulling fuse 17 disables traction control on a 05, but doesn't do squat on a 06 or later model. Proper light sequence should be "mr squiggles, bas/esp light on.
Query Noesp and spend the $50 for a disengage. It took me about 45 min. to install, mostly getting the plugs undone on my R/T. (Fat fingers)

Even with traction controll disable, I couldn't break em lose more than 6', until I went to a 91 flash and woke the car up. A PCM and TCM update may be needed also to work with the SC flash.

After a few good burn outs, I haven't done it again. 22" 255's broke loose more easily- stock motor. Stock 225 18 with Coni's were stickier.
It's debatable, but I feel accelleration was better with the 50% stock dissable on, with paddle shift.

It doesn't do anything for shift points, which are set in the TCM. You need to flash it to change that.

On 05 models (some builds), it will dissable traction control and skid control, and ABS.

On my 05/05 build 06, it dissables ABS, skid (yaw) conrol, and the brakes still pulse. So no yaw (skid) control-No ABS-and 50% traction control reduction.

When you disable the ESP via the switch doesnt that shut off traction contaol as well? if so isnt that the same as pulling the fuse?
