What speed does ABS kick in mph?

The ABS kicks in when there is heavy or hard braking, regardless of the road conditions. Anytime that you push very hard on the brakes (and are going at speeds over 10-15 mph), the ABS will pump the brake pedal. You will likely feel a slight pulsing sensation in the pedal.

Why is no ABS faster?

You have to brake hard at first, but then slowly release the brake pedal as you go further into the braking zone. This is all down to grip, as without enough grip, you will lock-up. There is more downforce and therefore grip on the car when it's travelling faster because the aerodynamics pull the car to the road.
