The SP2 gives you VERY sensitive throttle response, you have to be very gentle if you dont want to race from every light, pretty aggressive setting but still controllable if you are careful with your foot.

SP3 is the AGGRESSIVE setting (double the effect of S2), you feather the throttle and it just launch! Nearly impossible to stay at a constant speed, it just keeps accelerating even with the lightest throttle input! Don`t use this in heavy traffic and parallel parking for obvious reasons. Track setting only.

 

Got mine installed today. Your review was very accurate, I don't have much to add... So far, SP1 is working quite well for me in terms of really getting rid of the initial throttle lag.

 

^nice! exactly where I installed mine except on the right side. Hope you're enjoying it

 

Would this work for the Ralliart????

IF it does, I'm buying one RIGHT NOW!!!!

 

Just added this in today. Initially, I didn't notice a big difference. But then I took the car on a nice canyon cruise and WOW, I felt a big difference there.

I started the canyon run with the controller off. Then a little bit of the ways in, I turned it to SP1, and right away I could feel the extra pep the car had. The car just felt alive, always in boost, it was a blast to drive.

Then I cycled to SP2 and SP3 and it was insane haha.

On the way back down the mountain, I turned the unit off and the car felt like it just fell on its face.

Overall, I am pretty happy with the unit, I wonder how much my MPG will go down hehehe, but whatever, its an Evo =).

Regarding the installation, I tapped a wire that came from the harness near the trunk / gas release and it went up to the side plastic kick panel. That was the only difficult part of the installation, and I guess the existing throttle harness was a bit of a pain to get off.

 

So far out of all the people that bought this mod I have not heard a bad thing about it. I'll be getting one as well!!!!

 

^I uses the TC everyday, can`t stand the laggy throttle feel from stock settings.

 

Been following this item for a while. Solves the factory DBW problem that I hate. Good first mod for a X.

 

do you have to turn it on all the time? or is the settings saved?

 

you can turn it on/off anytime during driving, it comes with 4 default settings which you can change at anytime.

 

This is a great Idea... The Evo X looks better every day!

 

I think I would get annoyed if I had to turn it on all the time. Is there a way to make it stay on like after you shut off the car and then get back in?

 

Can any one that has one of these tell me where you bought it and if you can make it come on directly after you start the car without pushing the on button? If you don't want to post it please PM me.
