I ordered this about 3 mos ago or so...and Im trying to sell the car but i have a feeling I will end up keeping it and finish the install of the S/C. I just have no need for 2 cars now so I want one gone.

Those throttle controllers are excellent with drive-by-wire systems. Most of the time with newer cars and WOT (wide open throttle), the car reduces the throttle actually and sometimes, a throttle reduction sensor (with traction control) is applied. These mods bypass this and thus, fast car!!!

Im guessing they are the same but not sure. Sprint is less and I heard they have a GB on the Benz forums. You should grab one!

This has also got my interest.

Probably a really dumb question, would it work well on a GTE swap 2nd gen. GS ?

thanks
