Default APEXi SMART Accel Throttle Controller

Can someone direct me to more info on this , seen the topic come up frequently And I’ve read a few , none that have answered this question ... having this controller installed , is it any different then driving around on sport+ Mode ... or does it increase the throttle response on that mode as well . Thank you !

Hey,

Its pretty much a sport button for your sport button if that makes sense. Makes everything more sensitive. In all modes..

We have them in stock, contact us for pricing!

For those who are looking for throttle controller, I use sprint booster on my 2016 GSF. It's plug and play. It works great!!! Hope this helps.

I always drive in sport mode. I feel like the car is really responsive already. I couldn’t see myself needing this, but it does seem pretty interesting.

I'm not seeing the sprint booster available specifically for GSF. Did you use the ISF version? I'm curious about this Mod.

Use the newest gen GS350 Sprint Booster. I used to have a 2016 GS350 F Sport and I upgraded to GSF. So I use the SB I purchased and plug in the GSF. It works perfectly. The Sprint Booster will make the throttle response more immediate. I am not affiliated with SB in anyway. I am just a car enthusiast that is looking to make my cars work a little better and the way I wanted.

Look at this youtube video about how a SB throttle controller works.
