i saw farther down that i shouldn't have it.
well if i put my truck in first gear and stomp it, it putts but if i start from drive it launches like a BEAST
if im making a hard turn with some power it wont turn the accelerator on till after the turn. its annoying i cant have fun in my truck
thats the torque control ... right?
either way it want it gone!

Well I got a 04 fx4 and it dont have the traction control button. From what I was told if you dont have the button on the dash or where ever they put it then you wont be able to dissable. Cause I was like sweet my programmer can shut it off but since I dont have one there is nothing to shut off. I have the SCT x3 from Mike from 5 star and thats what he told me

Only the 2006+ 4x2 Lariats should have it. According to the literature anyways. I have yet to see one.
I know what he is talking about now. It isn't Torque Control...exactly anyways
no idea about the turns though. even before my supercharger I could swing the *** out pretty easily.
another thing to consider is that the e-throttle apparently measures how hard you nail the gas...as well as how much you depress the pedal.

When you put the shifter into 2nd or 1st, the PCM remaps the throttle.
it cuts ~1/2 the throttle out, and then fine tunes the pedal to give you more throttle sensitivity.
basically, Ford did this for low speed situations that require good throttle control

Like boat ramps, pulling a trailer offroad, muddy ground...places you don't want to spin a tire

try smoothly rolling into the pedal and floor it...about 1-2 seconds total time
then try stabbing the throttle to the floor
