Possible to add tsc?

I live in NYC and the weather has been terrible. I have a 2k max and dont have the traction control. I was wondering if the people with it think it really helps and is it possible to some how have that option added, and worth it?

i have tcs and i most always turn it off when i start the car no matter the weather conditions. if you have it on and pull out into traffic and it loses traction, it will cut fuel to certain cylinders and cut power dramatically. the only time i keep it engaged is when i am certain i will not be driving aggressively. if you are looking at possible increasing traction then you should look at different tire options because just about any 4 tires will be cheaper than getting into the project of adding traction control.

I live from nyc too, I know what your talking about. I about to get new rim to put summer tire in and in the fall I am going to put winter tire on stock rims. that is cheapest way to go. you get perforamce and looks in the summer. and you very good traction in the winter.
