tecman: Still liking the PC? I really like the flexibility this gives. I'd definitely play with performance aspects but even economy could be interesting as well for some.

Yep, still in high sport and average 15.4 mpg as of today. I keep thinking about lowering the setting and probably should play with it a little more. I did about 50 miles on the highway today and have learned to be gentle with the pedal. BTW I got an email back from the company offering 10% off with "clublexus10" I replied that it is easy to get this product elsewhere for $300, response was they have a strict policy against group buys :-/

If one looks around you definitely see a lot of people happy with product. Many also show some timed performance improvements. I realize this isn't creating power in itself but I've seen what throttle mapping changes can do on my Infiniti so perhaps opens a door to performance that has been there all along and just untapped.

Yep, that's what I have. No extra power, just quicker pick-up acceleration. My heavy beast with lift, big tires, steel bumper an winch, and full steel RCI skids have more kicks accelerating at Sport 4+ mode off the line.

I don't use that controller as I can't see the LED setting without getting on the floor. Bluetooth works fine so you can tuck that away if you choose.

I got 25% off when I ordered but there was an offer on Friday where 35% off was possible with vendor and eBay offers. 20% is still good though.

that's pretty good discount, if I see something close to it on cyber monday I might pull the trigger
