If you don't use the clutch you will need to use a ignition cut of some sort. Strain gauge or something

With a properly setup ignition cut there is less chance of dog damage vs. clutching the car.

I'd bet that using the clutch is a lot safer for the dogs.

I was wondering if using the FTS full throttle shift option with the s300 will work with a strain gauge or just keep it pedal activated.

Pretty sure hondata ditched the strain gauge option on the s300.

I personally recommend to use the clutch if you are not using a strain gauge or some kind of shift cut.

Well that's pretty ****, would be pretty pissed off if it's been removed to allow the pointless V3 additions or that traction control abortion.

Its been gone for several updates now. It probably didnt work worth a **** so they ditched it. I still cant get my Full Throttle shift to work worth a damn so I just dont bother. Looking forward to making the move to AEM v2
