manual cars are the sh1t

it does matter. because the bigger a turbo on any application determines the minimal amount of lag you will end up with no matter the tuning.

No shit sherlock, but we aren't discussing turbos in general, we are discussing his 94 stock turbo, and knowing that his compression ratio is 9.3 I instantly know that he can't have too much boost or his engine wouldn't have lasted to still be running today.

In other words i don't care, i'm talking about HIS turbo right now. and the fact that if he isn't a **** driver, turbo lag shouldn't be significantly affecting his low end performance.

Again you are an idiot. Just because you've heard terms and can throw them around doesn't mean you know how they work. it just means you've discovered wikipedia.

HAHA looks like i was right about Wikipedia, you didn't even bother paraphrasing much did you? of course only an idiot like you would misunderstand "a secondary function" as "working in conjunction with"

A traction control system (TCS), also known as Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR), is typically (but not necessarily) a secondary function of the anti-lock braking system on production vehicles, and is designed to prevent loss of traction of the driven road wheels, and therefore maintain the control of the vehicle when excessive throttle is applied by the driver and the condition of the road surface (due to varying factors) is unable to cope with the torque applied.The intervention can consist of one or more of the following:

Retard or suppress the spark to one or more cylinders

Reduce fuel supply to one or more cylinders

Brake one or more wheels

Close the throttle, if the vehicle is fitted with drive by wire throttle

In turbo-charged vehicles, the boost control solenoid can be actuated to reduce boost and therefore engine power.

Typically, the traction control system shares the electro-hydraulic brake actuator (but does not use the conventional master cylinder and servo), and the wheel speed sensors with the anti-lock braking system.

Traction Control applies the breaks when spinning, it is used in conjunction with the ABS system(such as on my car). In other vehicles with more sophisticated systems use timing retarding, reducing fuel, or boost control changes on turbocharged or supercharged application.

and in reference to abs and tc going hand in hand, i shared that info bc i didnt figure you were intelligent enough to realize the fact.

and they actually do install 2 different parts that have similar purposes, the master cylinder and the hydraulic brake actuator. they both force fluid to the calipers or wheel cylinders, just at different times.

I dont pull sh|t off wiki. correct info should pretty much match correct info? should it not?

Oh yes, you just happen to memorize all the different methods ABS uses to change wheel speed, even when some are almost never used, in the exact order they are given on wikipedia. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

coincidence homie. or at least the order. and ive been working on cars a majority of my short life, and im more than aware of methods used to slow rpms and cut power via a computer.

So now you are trying to tell me, that you didn't just spew wiki all over me when....

you recite almost exactly word-for-word the wikipedia list to try to correct me when I correctly describe the function of ABS.

You claim that your knowledge is so specific you were able to list the specific methods ABS uses, yet you were too dense and quick to overgeneralize to recognize that ESC is a different system entirely than ABS and TC?

No ABS and TC are not "A form" of ESC.

ESC describes a very specific system which is not ABS or TC, but is almost always used along with them.

I wasn't born yesterday, and you weren't born far from yesterday. But i'll stop now, I wouldn't want to completely castrate you in public.

you did not.

they are ridiculously closely related, the use many of the same sensors

whatever bro.

Yes nimrod, they are closely related and use the same sensors because additional sensors would be redundant. but that doesn't make them the same, your brain and ball sack both need blood to function, but that doesn't make them the same either.

One of these systems is designed to work with accelerating, and the other while breaking. Thats why they are different.

I fail to see your correlation between an automatic, and a diesel engine. You realize most large trucks, and by large I mean bigger than a pickup, use a manual transmission behind their diesel engine, right?

Since a lot of my family either is or was a trucker yes I do know that, I wasnt talking about Semis I was talkin about pickups... For racing diesel trucks which is what I do (or am working on) Autos are much better... should have clarified that, but in general I like auto trucks better anyway even if its a gasser cuz they just cant be drivin like a small manual car can lol
