Is it bad to have ect power on majority of the time? I just feel like my taco drives a lot better and shifts better while on ect power.

It doesn’t bother me to push the ECT button when I want it on (which is most of the time). There is a Mod to make the ECT stay on all the time.

Won’t hurt anything.
Leave it on all the time if you want, it’s fine.
