Default Chip Mod to eliminate fuel cutoff?

Does anyone know if there is a way to disable the fuel cutoff, I think it shuts it off due to wheelspin but am unsure. Has anyone tried taking out the fuse to the abs?

Default Advice, it would be better to describe what you are experiencing and trying to accomplish ...

than trying to ask for a prescription for a behavior you don't really understand what the cause is. I am unsure of your motives, but what you are trying to describe doesn't seem to have anything to do with the ABS or fuel system. Do you mean traction control which locks the brakes because you are on some type of dyno as opposed to the car being on level ground?

Trail braking into a corner and it shuts something off, the fuel or something, trying to reduce wheelspin? on a 6sp

Sounds like ESP kicking in. Isn't there a switch to turn it off in the S4?

Default I see. It's been discussed a few times on the S4 board. 3-5 second of braking...

cars with DBW cut out throttle (or shut off half the injectors) and retard timing. I don't know how to overcome this yet. A few recommended taking off the switch on the brake pedal, question is which one and what adverse effect. Best to talk with a chip tuner at this point

No switch, a way to bypass it with the VAG tool. Adam, how's your car doing?
