now i love abs and it can be a life saver... however it pisses me off when i feel like really going for it and braking mid corner etc to control the car.... looking in my manual there appears to be NO fuse for the ABS, so how would one go about deactivating it, so that i can flick a switch (already fitted) and deactivate the ABS

cheers guys

iirc its powered up via the DME relay, just find the main power feed cable to the unit, double check its not in a loop with something else and run a switch into the car
