I have found that the Pedal Commander solves the known Tacoma problem of poor throttle response, and it also minimizes the known problem of gear searching on the 6 speed transmission. It installs plug and play in ten minutes, can be set to 3 different sensitivity modes as well as turning it off (back to factory).
A viable/good idea might be to get the Pedal Commander and a performance tune, since they are for different purposes.
I have a 2022 sr5 and it hauls ass without any pedal mods or tunes. I love it.
2020 trd off-road with a tune. I got the 87 octane one. Worth every penny. It's the way the truck should be tuned from the factory. Ect button makes it even more fun 😀
At first I was skeptical about all three. I then decided to go with the Sprint Booster. Ease of installation and the ability to fine tune it with a push of a button helped me decide. OMG, what a difference!!! I shaved a little over a full second on my 0 to 60 times and the throttle response is great. More importantly, the ability to safely merge onto the highway are a snap. 100% money back guarantee is a plus.
99.99% of people does not give a damn about shaving a second in the 0 to 60.
@@Teporame 99% of people purchasing aftermarket mods do though.
Sounds like a fake review. Were you not flooring it before??!? Basic pedal commanders can’t do anything your right foot can’t. Take it from a professional: ruclips.net/video/0-2mslbBk4g/видео.html
^ this video explains the reason basic pedal enhancers trip a CEL, or a limp mode
@@nodnarbz_1327 I've been using the sprint booster on my Tacoma for 2 years and my wife has been using one in her Camry for a little over a year. Zero problems with both.
Same thing happened to my 4Runner running the pedal commander. After removing the pedal commander now my 4runner runs normal ok. Been 2 years without any issues now
Had a pedal commander for a couple of months then upgraded to a KD Pro Max tune and night and day difference. Definitely go with a tune. Chris LeBlanc is very professional and makes you comfortable with your choice. He lets you test out the tune before everything is final. If you want more/less sensitivity he will tune it to your liking.
Appreciate the comment! Do you know what throttle response you went with?
@@OfficialAing I went the less aggressive one. I don’t have much weight added on to my truck. If I want to play around with that aggressive tune he said just to turn on my ETC button and it works
Awesome video amigo. Now I don't have either. Like you I am not sold on any of these gadgets, but I am old school. Awesome truck, keep those videos coming.
Have the Sprint Boost and love it have had it 2 years and have had no trouble. For me it was a huge change in excelleration response for the better. Also got a slight increase in mpg.
Think I’m leaning this way
My pedal commander has been great for the past 3 months on my 2021 OR 4x4. Due for the high prices in fuel, I have been running City mode at -3. My average city MPG is 16-17 and highway 19-20. Now if you are flooring it at every light/stop you should average 13-14 city, and 15-17 highway lol.
The Banks peddle monster hooks directly into your OBD2 port which is said to eliminate the possibility of going into limp mode! Think its the one im going to try! And its does vehicle diagnostic’s for trouble codes as well! My Tacoma for me doesn’t need more power either, for me its the lack of throttle response, ive driven a new 4runner with the same 3.5 engine and it does not have that issue, the dead pedal is very annoying (and a known issue) especially when your not used to it because my work truck that I drive everyday has normal throttle response!
Same here , i bought one for 150$ , how did it go with yours?
As long as you take your foot off the accelerator before making any changes on the Pedal Commander you should be fine. Had mine for a few months now with no issues.
Awesome vid
Appreciate it!! 😎
Sprint booster is the best mod I put on my truck. We basically got the same truck bro. Mine is red yours is blue. Just the opposite on the color spectrum. I got my sprint booster 1 month after I got my truck I just could deal with the sluggish drive man. Now is so much more fun to drive. I have mine for 9 months now. My daily driving setting is sport mode 9 (green 9) if I want to burn some rubber of the line I go in red with trac OFF. I also recommend this to my friend we bought our trucks at the same place.
I have a sprint booster in my 2020 Tacoma four-speed it took most all the lag out
Had problems with shift power threw car into limp mode but sprint booster I had on a previous car & no problems now installed on my current car & still no problems
Do you use premium gas? I take it you have the four-cylinder model?
Love my KDMax pro tune with LT pedal sensitivity
Just got the Pedal Commander and I was impresses. I made it so the truck feels like my Camry SE on the moderate setting(City).
I haven’t tried any of the others, but I do have a KDMax pro tune and I felt the difference right away compared to the truck being stocked.
Got sprint booster butt got 3rd gen Tacoma but it’s 2.7 if they made a tune I would
Fireeeeeee
Had a pedal commander for 3 years. No problems at all. You might check out the Banks pedal monster for its built in safety feature though. If the device were to fail it won't go into limp mode, it will go back to the stock throttle response.
They should've given it a better more appealing name like the pedal wizard lol. The fail safe feature sounds pretty good, also a way bigger more known company then SB... have you used the banks one?
@@goride365 I have not. I would love to get one though cause of that cool gauge you can get with it but not willing to pay the extra money for it.
That's the route I'm going on my 2023. It's nice to have that safety feature.
@@wheelsturndid you get the Banks???
I just picked up my 2023 Tacoma on Friday. Transmission shifting sucks. So I’m in S mode often. 😂
@@TommyLuptak I have not. Went with a few other mods first. It’s on my list though.
Did you look at the Banks Pedal Monster?
Does adding any of the mentioned devices change the lifetime warranty on my 2022 Taco? Also, I saw that someone wrote a comment about 4 cylinder engines. Are these devices needed on the 6 cylinder engine?
Great videos
It does not.
I am still on the fence about these things. I did ask the dealership service department if these could be potential warranty issues, they said no with the caveat that "it may be a good idea to remove it before bringing it in if there was an issue". I would like to drive one first.
E tenido pedal commander en la mayoria de mis vehiculos, 2-SRT ,lo tego en una tacoma 2016 funciona super bien y es suoer FUN!!!
Have the pedal commander I love it the different modes and sensitivity levels are great for your specific liking 👍🏻
That’s what I like about it!
Juan Valdez - have you experienced any check engine lights? I had a few lights turn on randomly but they eventually turned off after shutting down the truck. Pretty odd right?
Lastly, do you know if I can service my truck at the dealer with the unit installed? Or should I remove it before my upcoming 10k old changes
@@krazylilman09 I have not had any check engine lights on at all. I have left my pedal commander on when serviced and it doesn’t seem to have caused any problems with my local dealer where I get it inspected. I have taken it off and put back on several times. When taking it off If you just drove the truck I would wait at least 20min for the trucks system to fully shut down. Same for re-installing it back on whenever you want to use it again.
I think they are all enhancing, but I've never felt the need to add anything to my truck period. It's a truck not a race car. I also enjoy driving my truck, so I'm never in a hurry to get anywhere. I also see your point, bigger wheels and tires add to an already lagging response to the Tacoma. Do what you want, your truck, your money. There are a lot of comments and suggestions. I just wouldn't want anyone messing with my motor, unless it was a supercharger! Safe .. ask Rob, he seems to really like his sprint booster and his subscribers.
I have a Pedal Commander and it works fine once you find the setting that's right for you. If you don't like 😂you can remove it for no extra cost. If you flash the computer and don't like it you'll probably have to pay to have it changed back. Just my opinion.
I like the idea of a pedal enhancer but not crazy about putting my life in the hands of cheap Chinese electronics. Also don't want to brick my truck with some shady tune. As a result I'm living with the dog slow acceleration. Every time I drive my BMW, I'm reminded of what 300 horses are supposed to feel like. Then I drive my Tacoma and it feels like the horse done died.
This comment made my day 😂😂😂 except my “bmw” is a Corolla lol
@@OfficialAing ...except your Corolla is more reliable. The dang BMW must have a sensor in the seat to detect when your wallet is over maximum thickness. Then the little light appears on the dash to remind you to empty your wallet. It's my $500 car. Every time it breaks, it costs me $500.
My wife's 2021 crosstrek is way more snappy than my 2019 taco turd!
Banks Pedal Monster is 100% made in the USA and the circuit board is made just down the road from Banks shop.
Got a KD Max Pro + Torque tune
Running 6in lift with 35s and it runs great 👌
Stock gears?
Team pedal enhancer so far no problem love it 🤞
Still got a pedal enhancer? And is it working good still?
Sprint Booster for the win. Plug-n-Play and no issues. My problem with the tune is it messes with the trucks programming. Like you said…what are you gonna do if you don’t like the tune…send a text🤔. You can change settings on the Sprint Booster yourself👍
Think I’m gonna end up going this route
Mod driven . How long have you had it?
I had a sprint booster... on a 2022 trdOR, honestly it feels the same without it, for my conserved driving style . I also learned how to drive the truck correctly, and not think that im racing it, its a truck not a Tesla or corvette lol... I sold it. Also way too jumpy at the start from a complete stop and driving through parking lots. That can't be good for all the mechanics in the truck. I get better mpg without it because I have a more variable throttle options where as with the SB it took away the ability to the feathering the throttle aspect, throttle was either on or off and kinda jumpy and it made it impossible to cruise at lowest rpm possible. Even to try and drive through a parking lot at 1000rpm or less which again, was nearly impossible and you half to "muscle" your foot to try and push the gas the most minimal amount possible. I kept mine on sport 1 mode...tried other modes also. Maybe my truck learned from the sprint booster with the 1000miles I had it installed but my truck hauls ass and shifts great without it... auto transmission btw with stock everything. I definitely love that my OCD thoughts of it failing at any given moment are gone now too lol. One time while driving though a camp site in mammoth lakes around 7am it did fell like the throttle cut out around 5mph and for a few seconds I thought "what happened to the throttle response" but who knows... that's kind of the thing, I don't wanna be the 3rd or fourth tacoma owner with a defected or whatever SB. Not worth the risk for such little gain/loss? especially with my family in the car. But hey it goes faster, right? lol. Ive talked to guys at camburg racing of their opinion, after I bought the sprint booster... they said regearing is the best route to go if you want better shifting and response... again im all stock and never really plan on building it out too much, maybe one size bigger tires or a snug top camper shell in the future or 2" suspension lift... sorry for the "rant" just my honest opinion and experience. The pedal commander's eco modes did sound appealing, though. Something the SB doesn't have...
My pedal commander just sh!t the bed yesterday.. went into limp mode and threw the codes... Pedal commander said they'd charged me to repair it... Or give me$40 off new one... Cause I was over warranty.. so that's in the garbage now... It did make a needed difference in the Silverado... But I only had it for about 10,000 miles.. not impressed for the money spent..
I got one for an outhouse when I camp.
I bought a 2022 tacoma and got a KDMAX tune at 1000 miles. Im gonna break it in with the Tune. I haven't had an issue and I did my research before getting a tune with just any random person. Do your homework and consider your backup plans. I got the normal throttle tune but I want to move to the light throttle. All I have to do is go see my tuner and he can change the tune for free since I purchased initially. I can take out the tune also. I used to think about the throttle response before because you notice it. After the tune I just drive. 🤙
The light tune sounds appealing, to keep that option to not have a jumpy throttle... is it kinda jumpy with the regular tune?
@@goride365 The normal throttle is not jumpy if you ease into it. My problem is when im in stop n go traffic I notice it could be better in terms of jerking so I'm going to the light throttle just because I know it's available.
What’s up with the 2 different color rims? Might be worse than the squatted truck scene 😂
I have the KD Max and I’ve been happy
Do you remember what throttle response you went with?
@@OfficialAing I went with the Throttle that is now called sport throttle. The person who did mine gave me the option to try both and decide which I liked best. This is from KD Max:
“1. Sport throttle- Aggressive, linear (much like our Regular/aggressive now but optimized for less jerky low speed)
2. Normal throttle- Used for Daily Driving but aggressive and linear (much like the old SLT but optimized and linear)
3. Lite throttle- Like the Stock/WifeTip throttle but optimized to be linear and smooth”
What’s the deal with the 1/2 truck different look?
Yea, Not a fan at all.
Shouldve got mirror tint on the driver side
I had the pedal commander, loved it! Ive heard the stories of the engine lights etc after a few years usage, so being new to it, i cannot comment on that. I did however switch to the Shiftpower usa and love that as well. For comparisons they are very similar, both provide modes although named differently. The shift power is smoother and i like the the percentage adjustments. In addition the valet and lockout modes are a nice feature. I hope I never expreience the failure but I keep the Pedal commander a sback up. If all fails, I unplug and will go factory.
Tunes remap the transmission. creepy over writing factory chips.
Pedal Commander is known for sometimes generating trouble codes.
Sprint Booster has a clean history and 10 settings. Authors choice.
Banks is new to me but not inclined to believe a fall back safety feature for anything plugging into OBD port.
my mechanic had a customer who had a gauge or something plugged into his OBD and ended up bringing it
in because things started not running right. unplugged it and everything was fine.
there are gimmick OBD plug ins for performance and mileage but read where youtube guys take them apart
only to find blinking lights or a chip wired just to itself pretending to do something.
usually the more hype the more i know don’t want it especially if it takes more than a paragraph to sell me.
2021 TRD Sport with Sprint Booster. makes it more comparable to my old ‘71 240Z instead of my old ‘67 VW.
Not on topic but I would have thought that you would have went with black wall tires on the passenger’s side.
Go sprint booster you will not regret it it will totally transform your driving experience with your Toyota Tacoma !!!
How long have you had it?
More to the point, why are the wheels on your truck black on one side and silver on the other?!
Did you order your tacoma?
They do not like hot weather !
Kdmax pro tune. This is the way
Skip pedal commander or anything that goes to the pedal. Go with a tune, more specifically the OTT tune. You will thank me. Best 500 bucks you will spend
K&N air filters help a little.
I would have to agree. I just traded my 2020 4Runner in on Friday for the 2023 Tacoma 3.5l sr5. I was going to get the pedal cmdr on the 4runner but never did after putting the K&K air filter in. Hmmmm I never correlated the improvement to not needing the pedal cmdr. Interesting……. I’m going to put the k&n in first. I just put the k&n in the regular box on the 4runner as most people said that the normal box was good. I’m surprised that I forgot about the throttle lag after putting in the k&n.
I’m actually upset at myself that I didn’t put that together as I’ve built engines and raced a little too. Dang…. Thank you. I’m also 60 now maybe the brain is slowing down damit. 😂
This guy wears a mask to sleep sounds really vaxed little extra😮
The slowness killed my road rage. Kinda
Try Lucas oil fuel injector cleaner every 6 months
Dude it’s all subjective . It’s either you do it or not. Right?
Sour Sandy
Hate me if you wish but a manual trans.... never mind. ;)
There were not manual trans at the time when I was looking! Some day! I appreciate you watching, thank you!
The point is...why is the tacoma such a crappy shifter/accelerator right out of the factory?....why do buyers have to go to aftermarket sellers to solve a dangerous problem with a new car?
Had KD Tune done......all problems solved. Would do it again, truck runs like you wished it would.
I think a "throttle enchancer" is the most ridiculous scam ever. Just push the ECT button or wear heavier shoes. If it doesn't update any of the mechanical or electronic parameters except augmentation of the throttle position, it's not worth it's weight in silicon.
Getting a professional tune (such as the popular KDMax tune) actually does change quite a few parameters in the ECU that legitimately make a positive difference in the drivability of the vehicle. Toyota really neuters the 2GR in the base tune for the Tacoma. That's still nowhere near as good as getting a regear though. With your setup, 5.29 would be perfect, and you will never look back. The only regret you'll have after getting a regear is not having done it sooner.
Why are 2 of your wheels black & 2 white or aluminum? I didn’t think I needed a pedal enhancer for $300 bucks, just step on the gas harder, right? But I got the Pedal Commander & was instantly glad I did. Even just “City” mode is soo much better a response than stock, “Sport” mode is what I leave it in most of the time, but “Sport+” is super zippy, just for fun once in a while. Well worth the $300 IMHO!! But, I’ve only had it for about a month. If it starts behaving weirdly I will return here & let you know. P.s. I couldn’t care less about your standing tent!! I clicked on your video to learn why not to buy a pedal enhancer!🥱
Any update on how you like it now?
