RWD B5 Audi?
OK guys, how is this is possible? I was looking up youtube videos of B5's with aftermarket mufflers and came across this burn out video.
You have to weld the center diff(torsen) and then remove the axles, you also have to unplug the ABS. When you do this the whp at the rear wheels still stay the same since power is still being sent to the front diff.

...I was wondering about that! Is there a way to temporarily take off ABS/traction control?
ESP button keeps the ECU from closing the throttle to decrease power. The ABS will still engage to control a wheel from spinning faster then the others which happens to be part of the EDL system.
Also to add to what Ghost said, you will also get a blinking brake light on the cluster and a beeping sound when you start up the car when the ABS is unplugged. The blinking brake light on the cluster can be seen in my vids, but because the host sites degrade the video so much it becomes hard to see.
