How to delete traction control

I have a 06 F150 w/ the 5.4 V8 and it will not spin the tires. If you try to gun it, it just boggs down. Is there any way to delete this feature. I know on the Dodges you can unplug a wire to fool the computer - any such luck with the F150?

There is a dash button on my 06 for shutting off the traction control- when the ignition is turned off it is re-activated.

Yeah that's the problem - no traction control button, seems to be built into the programing or something. Any advice

What are the specs of the truck? The bogging down is the lame factory tune. Get a gryphon, that will light the tires up. I do mine all the time just because I can.

A gryphon is a tuner like the edge but is custom tuned by the people at www.powerhungryperformance.com and thats all they do is custom tune these gryphon's and make the f150 a much more enjoyable ride then the lame stock tune these things come with.

Start by getting up to speed on the different tuners available by reading some of the posts in this forum.The Gryphon is an upgraded Edge tuner with custom tuning capabilities. Tons of helpful info and people in here.
