Question Change Traction Control settings with PCM reflash?

Can this be done? I'd like to make the traction control less sensitive or something because I can punch the throttle at about 40mph (3.23 gears) and the Traction Control will kick on killing power for a few seconds. That really sucks when you are trying to pass somebody who is going too slow...

Also, is there any way to shorten the length of time that it takes to regain power?

Can a tuner even make changes to the TC inside the PCM or would they need access to the BCM?

was going to post a pic but it's not clear.

A lot can be adjusted in the TCS by a tuner.

If you want. Go here and download EFI Live 7.5.5 and have a look around.
http://www.efilive.com/index.php?opt...=48&Itemid=124

TCS Exit Rate
Max Time Allowed
Min Time Allowed
Tip-In Torque Reduction
Tip-In Torque reduction Min Speed
TCS Spark Retard
TCS Spark Retard Fast
Torque Loss
Max Torque By Gear
Pedal Torque Limit Reduction
Run Time Before TCS can be active
Max Torque By RPM

That will let your tuner do whatever you want him to do to it. If you want definitions. See Link.
