Matty, for the money it makes sense to have more control over throttle sensitivity, it’ll put a smile on your face if nothing else. I knew how responsive sport mode would be but I was shocked at eco mode really slowing the car down and making it tame if that’s what you want I guess!

Thanks mate, been um'n and ar'n whether to get one of these or not and you've made the decision easy, I 'm gonna get one. I've got a 6.2L with a harrop 2650 blower and I reckon this will be the cherry on top to give it max performance. Thanks bro, really appreciate the post.🤙

Hey mate did u get it I got a manual supercharged ve (646hp) and I hate the lag in the throttle response i hoped that if I bought a manual I would not have this issue but it does and from this vid its the damn computer (wish the car was old fashioned way on a cable) ?

@@marcd8576 hey bro, won't go into all the technical stuff cause I can't explain it well enough but I got one on line from a place in Melbourne and took it to the place that did the cam and blower. I was strongly advised not to have it installed and in fact they said they wouldn't install it. The reasoning behind is to do with the effect it would have on the tuning or ecu mapping. I left it out, and some weeks later travelled interstate to visit family and while there went to a performance place that do all types of go fast work and they also said the same thing. I am now going to sell the throttle controller. Hope this helps bro. I've got a manual as well and I have that bit of delay as well but while I would like the response to be more instant, it hasn't caused me to loose any races yet and I try to load it up in the lowest gear and then quick shift up when I get into it. The person who tunes it can make a difference also.

I have a series one 2014 VF SSV L77. I wonder how one of these would go for fuel economy as well as throttle response. I know you cannot have both at the same time but the economy mode is a good idea as well as the power modes etc. I have otr and will be getting a tune soon.

Gimmick. Physically cannot make the car faster - that ‘ECU’ you talk about, is still fully in control of the throttle. This junk gives full throttle request at 10% pedal, making you think the car is faster, but it’s not. Lol.

@@kostasakkas7247 for the cars your driving they are next to useless, nothing slamming your right foot into the firewall can't do. In a high sport setting in the wet could also make them unpredictable and dangerous. Although I've seen them improve performance on modern diesels, only because it manages to minimise turbo lag, and what made them popular in the first place i think because you still have manufacturers warranty
