I am selling a used Racelogic Traction control system with launch control and full throttle shift. I installed it into my E36 M3 a couple of years ago and removed it when I sold it. It cost about $1,100 when I bought it 3 years ago; with exchanges rates the way they are, I imagine it costs alot more now. I want $600 shipped for the complete unit. You can get detailed information on RL TC here: http://www.racelogic.co.uk/?show=Traction_Control. Here is the complete unit:

Installing this unit is not for the faint of heart. It entails splicing injector wires between injectors and DME, splicing into the ABS module, and running wire. Also, there is a additional requirement for this unit to procure and install a 6-wire connector for the injector splices. The unit came with 2 sets of connectors so that you could remove the controller from the vehicle without cutting/desoldering wires. I removed this unit with 1 set of connectors with the other set still in the car connecting the DME with the injectors.
This is the controller with wires inserted. You will note that I labled all the wires to ease installation.

You may have noticed that I modified the center ashtray to accomodate the RL adjuster and launch controller (I know that my craftsmanship leaves a little to be desired). Now you see it.

Now you don't.

The unit comes with manual and software.

It also comes with the documentation that I found on the web at the time and the schematic I drew after researching wire locations with the Bentley Manual and the RL Manual. However, my research was limited to an installation for my 98 M3.

As I mentioned, installation should only be done by someone comfortable with your vehicle and splicing critical wires in places that are sometimes hard to reach. I am also available to provide assistance online, but it's been a few years since I did it.
