Better Throttle Reponse?
Hi guys,

I've done a few searches and I couldn't get any info on this unit. It's from Blitz and here's the link: http://www.blitzpowerusa.com/product...n/throcon.html


Would this work? Would AP be able to do the same things? I know it's manipulating the TPS signals, but I would like some more info on this device.

it changes the accelerator pedal position sensor voltage, tricking the ECU into thinking you put the pedal down more than you did.

Save the money and buy an AccessPORT instead, you should be able to recalibrate the pedal as well with it.
