It's definitely worth it for our cars, I have one and it got rid of that stupid throttle lag and flat spots. It definitely makes the cars throttle response much more aggressive. Doesn't feel like I'm driving a old Cadillac anymore

If you want to test it out before you buy one, let me know, and you can take my GS for a spin and see it for yourself.

I'm telling you guys, it's money well spent. I got a great deal and bought one from a member on here for $170.00, the retail is like $300-$400 I believe.

Just let me know if you guys wanna test it out, just PM me or something...

It's a simple 15 min. install, no need to cut/splice any wires, all plug and play. All you have to do is connect the Blitz unit to the accelerator position sensor that's located on top of the gas pedal and connect the car's stock one to the Blitz unit and your done.

ECO mode actually really does help save me some gas especially since 75% of my driving is city and SP1-3 is just kick *** fun.
