MOST people don't go for AWD to lose grip... rather to gain grip...no?

My last car was an AWD Sport Sedan, and I never even thought about a "burnout"
Just getting the car off the line consistently was enough of a challenge, BUT,
hey...to each his own!

Sounds like x owners say it's not going to be easy though! Good Luck!

He's talking about nj street legal. Sure I could strap Rolls turbofan to the back of the vehicle also.

Just curious, why would you want to disable the AWD?

I doesn't actuality disable it, it just keeps the TQ converter locked up, I can launch the car also. Which you can't do in any auto cause the TQ unlocks after 3 seconds. The HI-Jack also makes the car like drive by wire. I think he shuts the ETC off or what ever that thing is called that controls the electronic throttle. There were a few threads on this sensor and turning it off.

One of the worst necro - posts I've ever seen. but still good info. I don't have AWD but still enjoyed reading about those who regret buying theirs.

you can turn off the AWD by pulling a fuse and cutting some wire or something a bunch of people did it.

I had a switch installed with an UPREV tune. If I turn off the AWD, I can smoke the tires quite easily and chirp through third.

I'm faster in a dig, though with the AWD on. I'm faster on a rolling run on the highway with the AWD totally disengaged. As stated it locks up the rear TQ converter and no power whatsoever goes to the front. Proven on a four point lift.

Finally, if you want it wild, turn off the AWD and the VDC. All kinds of silliness ensues.
