    Do Throttle Controllers Actually Make Your Car Faster?? In my previous video installing the Ultimate 9 USA Throttle Controller on my 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee (video linked below) many people asked me to do a 0-60 speed test after adding the throttle controller to the Jeep.... so here it is! The results surprised me a bit actually and I'd love to know how it compares to yours if you have the pedal commander or a different brand.

    I have a 9-Drive electronic gas pedal in my 2005 Subaru Legacy GT and in my opinion, the 9-Drive has done more than any other mod or mods that I’ve had on my previous cars. It’s easy to install and it works. The 0-60 is 4-5 seconds because with a turbocharger you have to wait for the turbocharger to spool up and give you more power but aside from that and like I already said, the electronic gas pedal is the way to go.
