Even if I unplug the DSC module, I still get some type of cornering intervention. In my case, it's not just dsc. It's probably the DME. It's best to just let the ecu do its thing once your at the power level that lets you have the freedom you want. It's safer than just spinning and sliding endlessly. You just get nowhere.
Even the M2 has electronics aiding it.
No money to invest in the device and I'm pretty happy now. My car is powerful enough to spin 4th gear. It's just helped me to finally find out my car is doing what it was designed to do. Back in the day, the car was very easily unsafe to drive in normal get out in traffic situations. I use to want this back but not anymore.
If your getting braking activity, that's normal for our cars. Most people will never know it. You can't code the car from my experience to eliminate all aides. If I did, my car would be undrivable. Believe or not your is still getting some assistance. Our cars would wallow and spin all over the road with a tune in just about any gear.
I may upload a trace when I get time. Thanks for the feedback.

All of these functions and sub-functions are controlled by the DSC module. It is a different line of communication than the DME, but the DME does poll data FROM the DSC unit via can-bus communication for things like torque reduction. If you disconnect your DSC module there would be no steering, wheel speed, or brake line pressure data for the DME to poll as you suggest it's still doing...

I have E9x/E8x specific BMW docs but not worth the time to dig up
