    ABS and Traction Control lights come on under heavy boost

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Alright, well my ABS and traction control light have started coming on under full throttle in second gear or higher. It only does this some times though. It usually occurs on the first or second pull when I start driving it. But then on consecutive pulls after that it usually does not come on again. I do have a CEL but it's from not having 02 spacers. Any ideas what could be causing this?
