You could potentially blow your motor. http://www.contour.org/cgi-ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=003628 Dave Andrews Black&Tan 2000 SVT 225 of 2150 Bassani..

The thing I found most interesting was about you disabiling the ABS and the tire lockup. For anybody interested in preparing your car for SCCA Improved Touring the ABS system has to be disabled, it is allowed in Showroom Stock. Get out your manually adjustable brake proportioning valve, which is allowed in IT. Frank McGovern 99 SVT Silver Frost 620/2760 mcgovernf@earthlink.net
