    Snagged one for $43! Totally worth! At first it may seem to not work, but try unplugging from the gas pedal and replugging. Just be sure not to disconnect the control pad from the cable box while the engine is running/only unplug it only if you are removing the mod entirely. You will get temporary error codes about the parking brake and stability control malfunctioning. (Cause the computer sees the throttle signal getting disrupted?)

    It’s funny how many people are so misinformed about how throttle controllers work. It doesn’t trick the throttle to think the pedal is further down than it actually is, it makes the throttle valve open faster than stock. Most stock drive by wire set ups make the throttle open slowly and that’s where the response lag happens. This thing makes it so the throttle responds quicker to the pedal input. So instead of you putting your foot down 50% and then the throttle valve going like 10-20-30-40-50% over a couple seconds, a throttle controller will tell it to open much faster depending on which mode you choose

    Ya these work great got one on my A4 it's nice you can fine tune them to feel exactly how you want I started out in race and it would spin all four wheels off of every stop so I fine tuned it on sport feels awesome now like how it should have felt to begin with , I'm assuming all Audi's are similar but there was a big delay in my stock pedal even in dynamic , Sport on tranny and Apr tuned the Apr tune sharpened up the throttle a bit but not as much as I would have liked

    I bought one and keep it on auto most of the time. He is not exaggerating at all, it wakes the car up, hard not to speed alot the first couple of days cause the car is just so grunty and wild all of a sudden. The PP mode or racing mode he has it in is really not fun to drive when just cruising, the pedal is SUPER sensitive. It will perform essentially the same in all performance modes including Auto but just at varying degrees. Auto mode on the controller + S mode is PERFECT. I tried economy mode at a high level just to try it and the car immediately went into limp mode so I wouldn't recommend that. Also never change the settings while driving!

  • @moochiezpitt

      You absolute moron. These controllers don’t reprogram or change anything in your ECU. If you unplug them before taking your vehicle to the shop they can not in any way tell it was hooked up. I have one on my new truck and took it in for something and my friend was the mechanic that did the warranty work and he told me he specifically scanned for codes and evidence that something was modded and he said there was nothing. So maybe next time before you speak on something and try to give advice, you could do a few minutes of reading. It’s really not hard to understand how they work.
