has anyone done this. is it better braking power. i have spoon calipers and want to know if this will help in brake feel/power?

abs does not in any way affect the strength of the bakes. It simply allows you to maintain control during braking. Unless you are a professional driver, I will advise you to leave it connected regardless of the quality of the brakes.

 

that was some good info....thanks

i think i'll leave it alone

 

Good choice

 

For sure. That would be very stupid to remove you abs. Even a awsesome driver would have a problem out breaking a abs system.

 

mines not removed.. but the ABS light is always on.. its no prob, ive changed the ABS unit 2 times and nothin..

 

Mine should still be working, but I locked up the FR for a good bit (or at least it sounded like it),
during some heavy braking while coming back from lunch (after passing my friends TT-7 on a downhill/curved section).

 

I kinda like (in a sick way) the bong noise you hear when the ABS resets.

 

I hate ABS

 

The ITR ABS is one of the best and it's programmable if you have the ABS computer. It engages very late (wheels lock up a bit) and very gently. If you have the shop manual (Helms) you can see why it's so good.
A normal ABS just reduces the brake pressure if one of the wheels locks up. And increase it again when it's turning again.
The ITR ABS estimates the vehicle speed with the 4 wheel speed sensors and controls each wheel's brake pressure (reduce, maintain or increase) so that the wheel speed matches the estimated vehicle speed within a programmable margin....

 

Yes, leave the ABS alone.

For maximum braking, learn how to "threshold brake" - pressing the brakes just on the threshold of braking, but not actually locking up - in which case ABS won't activate. But, if you DO lock them up, ABS will kick in to allow you to keep steering the car.
