Anyway to keep the VDC OFF????

Just curious if there is a way to kill the VDC so I don't have to manually kill it each time I get in the car. Would be nice to have when raining or snow though.

Any way to do so?

Yes there is!

KPTechnologies has the VDC Mod, which leaves the VDF Off until you turn it back on. Check it out.

Btw, don't do anything crazy trying to disable the VDC.. It's not worth it, I think a lot of you are under the impression the VDC is reducing your HP output, not the case. Dig up that thread of the kid who tested out his VDC... BANG

I'm not worried about the HP....I mean, yeah, we all want the most possible.

Its the quality of the drive....I hate when I am in a turn and its like the car craps out. I have no issues with the VDC off. I know how my car handles and can control it perfectly fine. I even sometimes get excited and take a turn a bit more acceleration and fishtail through the turn. If you can't handle that....you shouldn't be driving a G37. So with dry roads....VDC off!! When it is raining/snowing - I leave it on.....you never know when that black ice will sneak up on you.

If I'm reading this correctly, that's the most retarded thing I've ever heard (well not the most, but pretty up there). Just don't end up like the M5 kid.
