Default Added pep, eliminated engine lag

Installed the HIKEIT throttle controller and transformed the performance. After playing with the various settings I settle for Sport 7. Utilizing an online coupon well worth the $159.

I don't notice a lag. If I power brake a little and punch it with traction off she lights the tires up before taking off. Especially with the all season tires on her now.

Yea, I noticed that lag from the first time I put my foot in her. She pauses for just a hiccup and then off she goes. It's kind of annoying because when you put your foot into it, it usually because you need to get out of some (insert expletive here) way to keep from getting creamed.

No I haven't. Turn key off, hold gas pedal down to floor, turn key to ACC for 15 seconds, turn key off again. Is that the correct procedure?

Noooo. It only displays information for 2005-2010. Dang it. Sent them a question anyway. But due to changes like the tranny, I am not too hopeful.

Any pics of it?


What does it do, exactly? changes how much the TB is open to be more aggressive with less pedal push?
