turning off ASR/ESP
Is there any way to turn off the stability system fully?
I know that on some BMWs if you hold the esp button for like 20 seconds it will turn it off.

the dash mounted switch only partially shuts down the system. There's a major connector (I don't know which one) under the hood that can be disconnected. That's supposed to completely disable the system.
I'm going to attempt to dyno my car again next month. I'll try to find the answer to this.
