Pretty sure basically every car made this millennium has abs. Traction control and stability control are a different story.

But that is the ABS module it just sitting sideways as oppose everyone elses

Maybe at the factory they put it sideways to clear room for the turbo

You are both partially correct. It is a sport. It has full four wheel abs. The difference is that is dose not have the extra ports for the traction control. Who needs it when you have a big turbo.....

that explains why the position is different

I knew the turbo had something to do with it

Not really shenanigans. But I would like to get a proper video soon. Coincidentally I just finished fixing a huge boost leak. Shitty tbolt clamp came loose. We have a whole damn box of 110's of clamps and not the sizes I needed so I had to use ones that are too large. But it fixed it.

Saturday dinner works for me.

Each participant supplies one wrapped gift. Participants determine in what order they will take turns choosing gifts. The first person opens a wrapped gift and the turn ends. The second person gets the choice of “stealing” any unwrapped item or choosing a wrapped one from the gift pile. If the second person steals the gift from the first person, then the first person can choose a replacement gift from the pile of wrapped presents. No immediate steal-backs are allowed. Stealing back a gift that was once in your possession must wait at least one-turn removed before stealing it back. On the third person's turn they can then steal an unwrapped item or choose a wrapped one. If an item is stolen from you, you can steal a gift from someone else, or open an unwrapped one. A gift cannot be stolen more than once in a turn. Turns continue until everyone has a gift. At the end of the last turn, the first person, who had no choice of stealing at the beginning, can choose to “exchange” their current gift with any player

Look at how the Mobil1 0W-40 performed to the Royal Purple he was running. I am not surprised.
