The AEM does engine rate of acceleration, aka "slew rate" style traction control. While it can be effective under certain situations, it is not as overall versatile like wheel speed/slip based TC such as RL uses.
Motec does full wheel speed based TC. Plug and play install kits will release soon for the Motec, and testing is in progress using the Gen3 ABS wheel speed sensors for inputs to the Motec for full TC.

Hey John,
Glad to see that you're still involved with our group. Hope all goes well for you up there. Send me a PM and let me know what / how you are doing.
Thanks for the help with my SRT-10.

MOTEC is a full engine management system, with no plug-and-play harnesses available for Viper. Imagine an AEM on steroids. Or more accurately, the AEM is the baby MOTEC.

Thanks to a very recent software update by Motec, the PNP harnesses will be a reality now. Testing is in place on a couple of comp coupes.
What Joseph said is true, however due to the price it may not be the system for everyone (especially if you really do not need to flex the power it has on your application).

Hey Dan,
I am, I lurk around when I get time but usually too busy doing what I love to surf as much as I want.
I am working for myself now, still doing tuning/wire harness builds/PNP wiring/track support/etc and really enjoying the freedom the job change has brought, even if it isn't always a reduction in stress!

If you think the ZR1 is the king of the road go right ahead and buy one. I'll stick with the king of the track, which is the ACR.
Well, Dodge was smart enough to get rid of the unsafe runflats. Maybe next is traction control. These cars are very unsafe, im suprised any Vipers exist. They should all be wrecked due to the lack of safety. We should be able to mash the gas and have the car stay straight.
Had traction control been equipped on my Viper, this would have never happened, thank god i wasnt hurt....

On a serious note , I love power and Im glad we still get to regulate it with our right foot. it was one of the major reasons i became a Viper owner and not a Vette owner. I just did a drive this weekend with 2 Carrera Gt's and some other Turbo Porsche's They were envious of the fact that i can get this thing loose whenever I wanted to. They wish their computers didnt take over, so they could really "drive"
