TCS on a 93?

I was wondering if there was a kit I could buy that included traction control for my 93 Z28 autmatic. If so, what are the advantages/disadvantages?

Re: TCS on a 93?

The advantages to traction control....from what i take aren't really that great. Traction control takes power away from your car when you start to spin tires. It pushes the peddle back up against your foot decreasing the power to the wheels. In incliment weather this would be useful. Although, most people say that it is really annoying and if you plan on racing the car it is not worth having. Everyone that i've talked to leaves theirs off while driving and racing, this enhances the ride!

As stated TCS has nothing practical if you wanna get agressive with your car

You can be your own traction control, when the tires spin like in the rain take your foot off the gas.

Isn't that the people that put things with their tool bar on your 'puter to track your every move and sell it to commercial businesses?
