There’s a guy from England on a Facebook group telling me the d2 is limited to 251 hp at the wheels due to traction control cutting power. Can anyone shed some light on this? I thought our tc only activated the brakes?
he claims he has 350hp from his motor on an engine stand but is only able to put 251 down to the wheels because of the tc. I could see 300 at the wheels after parasitic and driveline losses.

So again...the trick is to engage CDL and turn the engine off. When you restart with CDL engaged, the TC is turned off and will remain off until you disengage the CDL, turn the engine off, and restart engine

I just validated that yes the TC stays off with CDL reengaged.
