Anyone shorted the clutch pedal switch for launching?

Has anyone shorted the clutch pedal switch (when fully depressed) as to avoid the ecu de-activating the factory stationary rev-limiter (2-step) ?

Do you guys have this problem at all? What is your fix?

I think i know what your talking about.. but I simply unplugged it down below.. and haven't had a problem since. I mostly disabled it so i don't have to press the clutch down to start the car. Also I have a 2 Step and it didn't affect this at all.

Interesting... I would think if you disconnected the lower switch that you wouldn't have a two-step at all.

The activation logic for the 2-step must not include the clutch switch. Just vehicle speed. NICE!

a lot of times the 2 step is speed dependent. like below a certain MPH it is turned on. but hell I could be wrong. I don't know if its that way with the stock ecu or not.

I just looked through my maps that I can tune with MrFred's definition for stationary rev limit maps...they say nothing about a clutch switch. I will test tomorrow to make sure Thanks guys!

2step is based on vehicle speed only. Nothing else, hence - STATIONARY rev limit.
