into the pistons. but as it's almost instant i can't see them being much
use, I know you can get a chip to allow the coupling to stay connected perm
via a switch, a bit like 4wd off roaders with selectable 4wd.

I have seen these chips, they increase the timing of the hydraulic fluid into the pistons. but as it's almost instant i can't see them being much use, I know you can get a chip to allow the coupling to stay connected perm via a switch, a bit like 4wd off roaders with selectable 4wd. |
starts to struggle for grip? I think the idea of these chips is to do it
whenever you press the pedal down with any vigour.
