Well, it's not the limited slip that you are turning off - it's the traction control. And yes, always turn it off.

on nitrous i just stall as high as the factory TC will allow (1800 - 2000 rpms) and then floor it..NA you can try flashing the coverter if you have a good set of tires for racing..while you're on the line just stall a few hundred rpms above idle..then just floor it when you take off<b>12 SECOND DUAL STAGE DRY NITROUS POWERED 98 A4 V6 CAMARO<br /><a href=\"http://www.mysickcamaro.50megs.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.MySickCamaro.50megs.com</a><br />Best ET: 12.82@103<br />Best MPH: 104.7<br />Best 60\': 1.75 - Stock TC</b><br /> </font><blockquote><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">quote:</font><hr /><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Originally posted by Shodown:<br /><strong>1DV6 runs 12\'s...enough said. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Comment

I guess I need to get stickier tires. With ASR off it takes a full second off my times (I spin until the second gear shift - this is in the corvette).2005 Ford Focus ZX3 SE D20 M5 - Modified ;) <a href=\"http://www.knightenmotorsports.com\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.knightenmotorsports.com</a> <br />[ U R L = h t t p : / / w w w . g e o c i t i e s . c o m / h e a r t l a n d _ h e a t _ v 6 ] Heartland Heat V6 [ / U R L ]Comment

For your 99..... stall to 1,800... and go from there.... stcok verter prob wont go much higher than that.
Speedracer... for your vette.... practice. Running both mom's C5's (98 and 00) I had traction control off... and got 2.0 60 ft's with the weeney A4 and 2:76's. It's all in the driver.Race car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6
