It modifies, amplifies, the throttle signal so for any given pedal position, the car thinks you stepped down further on the throttle.

I don't have one and won't buy something that my right foot can do for free; press the pedal down further. I'd rather spend my money on stuff that makes an objective difference.

slap on ISF front brembo calipers on there.
order one LEFT caliper: 47750-0W030
order one RIGHT caliper: 47730-0W030
need two of these: 04947-0W010
get some ISF front brake pads and bolt them to your car and use your factory rotor.
