Default VSC and traction control

Is it possible to put VSC in pre-06 s2k ? Is it a separate module similar to cruise control? It would be the best mod after boost, just so in the corner it can be a nanny.

Not to be a dick or anything, but are you asking a question? I read your post several times, but it doesn't make any sense. Neither of your sentences are clear.

it doesn't take a genius to figure out what he's asking.

it would take at the very least the 06+ ECU and drive by wire throttle (whatever all that encompasses) to add VSA (not vsc) to a pre 06 car. Maybe more maybe not. I don't know if the 06+ ecu can work with regular fuel return setup instead of the returnless that comes with the 06, so you might have to do a fuel system upgrade/modification as well.

Way too much work!
Drive wire throttle conversion, mods to ABS to make it 4 channel, all the yaw sensors, the seperate VSA ECU, not to mention the wiring loom between them all!
Have a go if you have deep enough pockets!

it would be easier to add RaceLogic's traction control to the car, which is apparently a great system. However, I'm not too sure it works with OBDII vehicles without throwing codes and maybe sending the ECU into limp mode

A couple of the UK owners have the Race Logic system retrofitted.

Good point on the OBDII though

i have a my06 gpw and the traction control is nice and all, but it will not stop all wheel spin...in fact, there has been mulitple times where i have sent the ass end out coming out of a sharp turn...probably cause i drive like an ass sometimes but i think it would be a waste of money for you to put it in...just don't stop the throttle and you should be good don't do this
