- Pedal Commander throttle response device test drive. Hellcat owner isn't convinced of the pedal commander, so he drove it in a Charger RT with 1/2 the HP he's used to. Let's see what he thinks of the throttle response of the pedal commander! This device removes any & all throttle lag when stepping on the gas.

Thank You Everyone for the Support! You guys are awesome - Keep on enjoying those Mopars
Where's the link for the merch?
Quick one... when you drive with the pedal commander does you estimated gas in your dash move around crazy? I plug mine in and my gauge and est goes crazy. Pedal commander not even on.

sal sanchez I have to check - I haven't noticed anything though
Where did you buy it ?
I finally bit down and bought this mod after all this time of hearing you talk about it like a very convincing salesman. I spent a pretty penny for kooks long tubes, full Borla S-type, and a Dyno tune after using Diablo tunes for over a year. After all the money spent I honestly believe the pedal commander should have been my second mod after my CAI. Only had it three days and I feel like an idiot for not buying it 2yrs ago and a little kid on Christmas trying to explain how cool it is.
Good story bruh, 22 stinger gt2 PC coming tomorrow!! RAD ⚡
@@raysal5149 Shits Epic my dude. Reply back to discredit the naysayers.
@@BigMemphisMook late reply, but yeah, these pedal commanders are not gimmicks at all...literally took a whole .6 seconds off my 0 to 60 time, and my ole slow v6 no longer has that slow transmission flush from a 30mph kickdown...instantly redline's like hell..
Nice demonstration of the PC, and the haters expression of joy was great. But the best part of the video was the time well spent with the family at the end.
Omg u can't beat that awesome pedal commander ! MY FAVORITE MODE !!!
I drive normally with it off but when I turn it on I feel like a got a brand new ride !
hahaha it's like you're turning on a damn turbo!
@@RTLife It runs good but combine that with a tune like I did with my S550 it causes issues with major high revs from 2000-3000prpm on a cold start that can last for 20-40 seconds!
It doesnt increase hp, it just unleashes what was already there..
Agreed. You feel the full amount of HP you have
Cheat code unlocked.
I dont kno why they keep hidden the performance features of today's vehicles.
I agree Dragracin 95, it's already there it just has to be unlocked
@@RTLife Should higher octane be used?
@@RTLife is it good for towing?
Love your stuff R/T I picked up an 18 R/T track pack and your channel definitely got me plugged in and inspired all the way out here in AZ 👍🏼
Nice! Congrats on the RT. These Hemi's are so much damn fun! Thank you for the support
"Turn it back on for a sec" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 he's DEFINITELY a believer now 💯
hahaha - he was def surprised with the product
@@RTLife i had it on an sxt challenger V6...it opened that bitch wide! I'm about to take delivery on a 2020 widebody scatpack and I was hesitant on putting it on bc it's already a beast (392/485) but after watching your video...it's DEFINITELY a must 🤣 thanks for responding man and MOPAR or NOCAR 🤣🤣🤣💯
That was awesome his smile and yours when his head snapped back priceless. Car definitely sounds mean as as hell and the 5" tips look great, I just did 4" on mine and past the bumper like yours looks great and really stopped the drone you can tell the sound is going out the rear of the car now.
it makes a big difference right?! Those tips really do help a ton. hahaha yah I think he understands now the fun factor of this device.
I’m finally hooked because I see the advantage with my 392 car at the track with radials would eliminate the 1 - 2 delay or at least minimize. Anyone who sleeps on the PC has never tuned their car 💁🏽♂️ Thanks for sharing!!!
If you can catch some traction I think it will help some. Def fun as hell though on the streets!
Is that 1-2delay you're talking about part of the torque management in the factory tune?
That delay these R/Ts have kinda bothers me too but that's just the nature of such big engines lol. I love watching these reactions to the pedal commander... no one expects it haha
It really cracks me up to - people just don't expect it! Until you try it you can't knock it
Olie oops also I recommend even a canned tune. Woke my car up quite a bit
Its not the nature of the "big engine" its just the factory tune 😂😂
@@lazriosjenkins1436 its actually the converter, and the throttle body...
Mines coming in Saturday. Going all the way with it. My ram hemi is tune with intake, tb spacer/exhaust
Dude I hope Pedal Commander is paying you because your response videos are great 👍🏼 I always get tempted to buy one watching your videos
LOL - no but they def should! I enjoy this little device. Pricey, yes but it's fun. Thanks man
Thank you for the ride, just got 1 for my twin turbos!! You guys are alright
The pedal commander is definitely my favorite mod right along side the tazer! Another great video man!!🔥👌🏿
yah both are solid upgrades. I enjoy having both as well. Thank you for the support!
Thinking about getting both do you think I should
?
Have you tried in its sport mode where you do the manual shifts? I'm wondering what the throttle response is like if you are already rolling in high gear at like 4-5k then punching it. Does the Pedal Commander make a difference in that pull? Or does it just delay the LAG from the lower RPM range?
$300 is a bit pricey but I have had mine on my 14 R/T for over a year and I love it. Sport mode +2 all the time.
yah that's my only knock on it as well. It should be priced at around $100-150 range.
I totally agree about the price guys. Its a bit steep for basically a button that opens your throttle body in different ways. But the smile it puts on my face is priceless :)
this thing should be around $100 range - would be worth it.
All that the pedal commander does is open your throttle body faster than not having it on. When you have it off... You can push on the better slow or stomp on it; however, it still has a delay opening the throttle body all the way open. With the commander there is no delay so that's why it throws you back in your seat. You could add horsepower by getting a 84mm throttle body adding more horsepower
yah pretty much - changes the throttle sensitivity. Def is a lot of fun though.
Of course 😂
My 2017 Hellcat Challenger build is finally complete (pretty extensive), and tuning takes place starting next week. I did grab a pedal commander over the holidays because they offered a $50 off sale. Was planning on getting one eventually, but everyone likes a discount.
getting a discount is always a good idea! Once you get the beast back let me know how it drives
That was a pretty damn good video👍 I really think the dealership should hire you I think you sold more cars with your video in one day then they do all month 😏I bought My two because of you And loving every minute of it 😎
hahahaha - these Mopars are a blast! Def the best cars on the road today. Thanks man!
I love the pedal commander, I'm getting 20 mpg with city +4 and I have not changed my driving habits whatsoever, even though I don't really care about mpg.
Nice, glad it's helping in the MPG area. Sport+ is a lot of fun though
Wow, that cold start was just nothing but impressive.
hahaha Thank you! I really appreciate it.
Good to see you still using it! So many none believers out there still😏
yah man, converting 1 person at a time! Everyone just cracks up when they try it.
One thing nice abiut the PC is that it takes away the delay and lag of the pedal.. it doesn't do anything to the horsepower but it does give you full pedal power.. almost like you have a cable pedal!
Awesome video man...I'm jealous tho!
I'm jealous that you get to hang with CT and I'm jealous that CT gets to hang with you😂
R/T looks and sounds great man!👍🏽
You would have a blast hanging out with us. One day man. Thank you, the RT is def coming along nicely!
Thanks bro. Definitely wish this country wasn't so damn big sometimes!
I don’t have a PC in my car but I do have a 9-Drive electronic throttle controller and I was not expecting what I saw in videos. I’m driving an 05 Subaru Legacy GT which is turbocharged with AWD and it is fun as hell. I can’t do any burnouts do to the AWD but it’s still fun as hell, I knew absolutely nothing about this, I just ordered it for the hell of it and I have 0 regrets.
I bought this for a 2014 civic ex. Sure $300 is a lot but it's definitely worth it. Feels like a completely different car and it's just plug and play
My Boy just let me drive his Mustang with this MOD and I couldn’t stop laughing. That was my only reaction. I didn’t know what the hell to do. LMAO 😂
feels like you added 100hp right?! So much fun
Lol it does feel like it.
Fully agree with the warranty people wanting no trace of a ECU reflash . Also agree with a maxed out build looking for something a little extra . Tried to get Pedal Commander to sponsor me as I have an Electric Chevy that has 400ftlbs of torque and a competitor throttle controller actually works on an EV . I have both internal combustion and a electric cars that I modify and wanted to spread word that it works so well on an EV with a one speed single gear reduction transmission it’s too fun .
it really is a lot of fun - makes the ride so snappy! Glad it works for you as well
It looks awesome. how could anyone think 300$ is unreasonable for that much responsiveness? I'm not a mechanic, but what else could you do that's equivalent for 300&
Exactly. I just ordered one for my 2022 durango RT 50 dollar discount 260 shipped can't wait to get it.
you should do a pov drive and while you are doing that do you think you can place the mic right next to the exhaust tips?
Awesome video. I can't wait to get my optima turbo one. I got a jet performance one for my non turbo focus se and it hauls. I always drive in track mode. Haha
You're going to really enjoy it! Having these throttle controls are great.
I would say what makes it worth more is if you actually think about the fact that you can tune it to how you want to drive with different settings, it could be just on and off but you get the different options just my opinion
yah you can adjust the aggressiveness - which is pretty cool. Sometime you want to have fun & others you want to take it easy.
I've been thinking about this mod for nearly 2 years myself. I 1st went with the tazer and am happy with that device. I understand this lil guy boosts the signal for the throttle so there isn't lag from what I've read..i know if I slightly tap the gas while cruising, the 8 speed with down shift 2 gears and you can smash..if i just floor it it seems to have a delay before acceleration..does the commander eliminate the need to tap the gas?
I would still tap the gas for some downshifting action if you're racing but for casual fun purposes no you don't need to. This thing will throw you in the back of the seat.
@@RTLife that's awesome! I think I'm sold. Thanks for the great videos, one of the best on you RUclips for mopars. 😎
Do you still do the gas pedal re learn to reset the learning mode? My scar pack feels like it’s not responding as fast anymore
I haven't done it in a while - but def give it a try. Let me know how it works for you
Dude, your b5 blue looks amazing. It sure does.
love the videos man truly amazing
Thank you very much - I really appreciate the support!
My question is when your cruising and you punch it does it speed up that downshift time if u know what I mean
I have to give it a try - I would imagine so.
There are other things that do the same thing for under $200. My brother is getting one for his Jeep. This is one I just found. Injen X-Pedal Pro Throttle Controller
Never heard of Injen X-Pedal Pro Throttle Controller - def let me know how it works out.
How much more gas does it use with the pedal commander and will it interfere with my tune thanks
Depends on how you drive. The pedal commander will over write any throttle response in your tune while in use.
Correct me if im wrong. But the research ive done shows that theres no real improvement to acceleration numbers. 0-60 and such. It's essentially just opening your throttle body further with less pedal. Essentially its a device telling your car to floor it with out actually flooring it. Wide open throttle is wide open throttle with or without the pedal commander.
Check this video out it is basically my final review & everything I think of this product
ruclips.net/video/4Q-EDZSqkkc/видео.html
My dad passed away a few weeks ago on November 1st, and he left me his pride and joy. It's a 2012 Challenger RT Classic with the 5.7 I have watched several of your videos to learn what's the best mods on a budget. I don't want to go really crazy with it just looking for 50 to 75 more HP to the wheels. He did a K&n air filter with resno delete and 40 series flow masters. It sounds really good. I am wanting to delete the cats, shorty headets, cai (just for eye candy), oil catch can, pedal commander, and when all done a final custom tune. Maybe a larger throttle body. Any advice on what you think is a waste of money will be greatly appreciated. You also got a new sub as well, really enjoy your videos and how well and honest you are with your content. I just want to carry on with his dream but with a family of 5 money is tight. Thanks again for your videos!
Sorry to hear that man. Glad you're modding that Hemi up in the name of your father. I like the mods you have listed out - I would skip on the pedal commander. Keep on enjoying that BEAST!
@@RTLife thanks a lot, I watched your video when the guy explained more detail about the long tube headers and going to do those instead of the shorts.
Good stuff man. It's definitely a fun mod, but damn, $300. I'd probably try to find a used one first.
Yah I agree with you. At the $150 range it's worth the laughs! Glad you had fun buddy
just hit them up they will sponsor u for a video
I got mine for 250.im selling mine.hit me up if your serous
I bought one this week for 150 a lot of fun for 150
@@magma5.o_h191 for that price its worth it. 👍
The throttle response on SRT8 are pretty good, so I really don't see the need for it and have enough problems getting traction as it is. If I were to ever do one, I would go for a new one that I seen yesterday called the Roar over the PC any day and has great reviews for half the price at $160. I would be better off getting drag radials, and am looking at MT for my Challenger right now along with 17x10" racestar wheels to replace the 22s that are currently on it
Man, I wanna get one cuz I really hate the lag. I just got a skip shift delete plug, have you done something for the skip shift? Just in case, it's the shift that goes into 4th gear when you're riding at low speeds. The Diablo tuner doesn't cure that or at least I haven't seen it in their settings. I have to install it this weekend, I'll tell you how it goes. But yeah man, I can't rationalize the pedal commander at $300. Like you said $100-$150.
yah def let me know how it works out. Agreed on the price of the pedal commander.
So does the pedal commander work with a trinity Diablo tuner with a custom tune? Cause I've definitely been interested in one of these.
I haven't run into any issues so far. Been plugged in for a long time now.
R/T Life sweet, thanks man.
Im currently on a grind and im lookong at a 2016 charger rt with blacktop package and sunroof in granite. Looks very mean. I want to get the police rear valence with the matte black 5" tips and the scatpack resonators with mini rqce bullets and a muffler delete. What do ya think?
Sounds like a hell of a setup - it will be looking & sounding mean!
@@RTLife that's the goal. A dark grey hemi sounding like a bad machine with big black tips on the back. And i also want to get the scatpack hood for heat control. Because in Houston, heat and humidity lives here and these hemis hate what they create a big amount of - heat.
How do you think it'll work out combining the Pedal Commander with the RIPP kit for the 3.6?
DO IT!
I just ordered mine and I watched some of your videos. I was just wondering, on this video you were changing the mode while the car is running? Isn’t that going to thro codes? I thought you had to be on a dead stop, then change the modes. Am I wrong?
I normally wait for a complete stop to change modes. That's the right way to do it
the pedal commander can be adjusted on the fly, i have two bd diesel throttle sensitivity boosters that can only be adjusted if you dont have your foot on the accelerator at the same time, otherwise it interferes with the current signal going to the computer. that is why i will tell everyone that the pedal commander is the product to purchase. of all the enhancements it is the best in my experience.
how does it hook up RT? wire to ecu?
@@RTLife cool cool
Great video.
I didn’t know that you can shut it off completely.
yup - you can completely have it off
R/T Life
Thanks now I’m buying it.
Even during pandemic lock-down and laid off from work, .....I have to take my Charger Srt8 out once every evening just because of the Pedal Commander hooked up to it. It turns what was once ordinary driving into EUPHORIC BLASTOMATIC DRIVING!! It's pretty ridiculous! Honestly, it's hard to add ANY performance mod for less than $300 at professional shop if you include labor. So for that reason, I think it was a good purchase, ....because you can plug it in yourself at no additional cost. Contrarily, adding a performance Throttle Body with labor, will set you back $600+, and you may not even feel a difference. So I'm just wondering what performance mods this hater was planning on purchasing for less than $300??? I spent $1800 on my exhaust, and it sounds better, but the performance it adds is harder to locate. There is NO DENYING the instant power you feel with the Pedal Commander. It may not actualy add HP, but it puts all your car's HP down at the instant touch of your foot. Amazing.
See how the twin turbos like it on the stinger ☕
You have a good lookin son 👍🏽 gotta love those eyebrows !! Great video 👍🏽
Thank you very much - he's a great kid. I appreciate the support
U 1000 percent feel it ! I pay 300 anytime for it ! It just makes me smile every time ! And it's got to add some time shaved off on like a race cause u r getting much quicker up to speed I think !
I still haven't tested it even when I had drag radials - maybe when I add summer tires!
@@RTLife yes please test it. I'd love to see what results you get 😁
The reason automakers put torque management in their vehicles is for warranty reasons. Instant power can often lead to broken parts which leads to costly warranty work.
Plus it would seriously hurt the EPA mileage numbers.
But does it really make a faster dig time and does it increase time. Need some 0to 60 test to see if it is worth buying. Also does it have an adverse effects on the motor or drive train. 1 gentleman noted that it causes cold start revs to be 3k is this true.
Don't buy this for performance purposes - you will be very disappointed in my opinion.
NONE of these devices give you hp it ONLY takes the pedal lag out
@@joe7528 Yeah no hp numbers but response time speed you get to point a to point b is quicker. No lag just GO GO GO
nice little thing that pedal commander but here in Canada they are 425$ and that sucks, keep up the good work budy
damn man, that's not worth it. See if you can get a used one. Thanks man, def appreciate the support!
sec10 is cheaper
I bought a “race pedal” it’s the same thing just no Bluetooth and I’m getting it Thursday
Missed this channel! I’m now in a 6.4 tho. Got rid of my 5.7.
Just ordered one for my Can Am trike. I'm expecting hilarious results from what I've seen. 😃
Let me know what you think - def a fun device to have
What do think about roar pedal it’s half the price
based on the reviews, seems legit. Similar concept, but I have no 1st hand experience with it.
Does it really work can you feel the difference and does it have to be tuned
No tune is needed. Just plug it in & go. Hell yah you feel it, def fun. Just a little to expensive
You can definitely feel the difference. I could easily tell that it wasn't on after RTLife thought he turned it back on.
Whats the name of the exhaust
in this video I have the Magnaflow Performance series
that pedal commander works awesome.....great video...
It's def a lot of fun to have in your car. Thank you
It's not just the BIG 5.7's I had one on my 2015 Dodge Challenger SXT Plus 3.6 Pentastar and man what a blast just got my first NEW truck 2019 Dodge Ram and I already ordered my Pedal Commander :)
Does the penis I mean pedal commander also take away the crappy fly by wire feeling if for example you tried to hold the throttle steady at 1200/idle? Does it stop that surging feeling?
you all can get them on Amazon for around 130. I got one for my f150 and wow its a must have
I see a lot of people recommending this mod even though i have a SXT. I’ve seen your vid, and it seems like a lot of fun. Would you recommend it R/T Life?
I have an sxt. Everyone who has been in my car loves it
I have seen a couple of SXT guys on youtube give it a try, they seemed to love it. It really makes the throttle snappy as hell
R/T Life thanks for the reply 👍🏼
Doug Krultz love the response, that just settled the deal lol.
Samael Madara get it I have one on my challenger 3.6 it wakes the v6 up
Loved the honest expression from the doubter. But at $300. I would still buy it again, 😂
What brand & where can I pick one up.
Great videos!!!
I would look on Amazon or ebay for ones for a discount. Thank you very much
I just ordered one because of this video. Thanks for that
I can’t seem to find a pedal commander that’s compatible with my 2018 Rt challenger? Help

Has anyone tried it on a 2021 carolla nightshade?
You totally sold me on getting this.
You will enjoy having this in place - def a fun device!
R/T Life it definitely looks fun. I can’t wait to try it for the first time.
Next week I am taking my car in and getting a 392 porter intake manifold, ported 85MM Throttlebody, Leggmaker CAI, and Stainless works long tube headers put on. Oh and a 160° thermostat!
Oh SNAP!!! You're going to be walking away with a much better performance Hemi. Pumped for you man
Thanks bro me too. Over 5k spent
I gotta get one of these for my truck. The delay is ridiculous
It is absolutely night and day. I put one on my fully built Ram. By built I mean literally everything you can do except a supercharger or nitrous. On Sport 1 it is extremely responsive. I could hardly drive it without snapping my head back at every stop and go. Its now on City +2 so my wife isnt constantly yelling at me.
I have it in my scat pack and it's really fun
Yah it's def a lot of fun! Glad you're enjoying it as well
What exhaust are you using ...that thing sounds beautiful
In this it’s the magnaflow performance catback
@@RTLife oh okay
I live my PC but yesterday YT recommended I watch a video about the Sprint Booster. It has two settings and 9 levels per setting. I don't know if you or anyone watching KNOWS the actual difference but I have to assume 27 overall levels (Eco doesn't count) is better than 18 to dial it in to your specific liking
I would imagine they're both very very similar - would be fun though to test it out. The more settings, the better.
@@RTLife Supposedly on the interface you're able to choose manual or automatic mode. I might have to see if I can find someone who has one and compare on the T/A.
It’s crazy how much torque the rt has and if the pedal commander adds to that it’s a plus that’s pretty cool
This thing really is a blast! Def a lot of laughs while using it.
That’s cool Scotty got to come hangout w/ya’ll
yah he's a lot of fun to hangout with. Great guy & always up for some laughs
I agree for the money their are better better things to do. but for someone who knows nothing about moding or has a car on lease or rental this works great. its also good for people who know little who do a lot of hiway travel long distance and want to save on gas.
Anyone know where he got his wicker bill from? I’m looking for one for my RT currently
Amazon has them for like $80-$100
How's it do with 392?
FP2000 has it on his 392 ruclips.net/video/k3lUoFgMA00/видео.html
He's no longer a hater! 😂😂
hahahah - he def knows now it's not a nonsense device!
Nicely done!👍
Thank you! Def appreciate it.
Can i hook this up on a cable operated throttle pedal?
I wouldn't think you can since this only a plug and play setup it mimics the cable response
This answered my throttle lag question I have.
Hows it make a 5.7L Hemi in a 2018 Bighorn move?
You will feel a difference
Nice,..... what on Earth are your wife and son eating? Just from the quick view that I saw it looked like she was eating seaweed??? Super good video by the way.. 1 big question, you may have answered in the video, but a little vague so not sure. Will the Pedal Commander cause voided warranty issues?
hahaha, we were having tacos - that was likely the spilled lettuce off of it. The pedal commander can be easily removed, so before going to the dealer just unplug it. This should not have an impact on your warranty
@@RTLife that's what I was hoping thanks.
Its worth $300 for an SXT V6 Challenger on the Custom exhaust with ram air. Its the only thing to do that makes you feel like you have a HEMI.
Hey R/T Life I'm a new subscriber and I just bought a 2018 RT. I'm kind of bummed about tazer not working with my car so I'm curious of I need an unlocked pcm for the pedal commander? Thanks brother.
Why are you bummed about the tazer? What doesn't work? - no you don't need an unlocked PCM for the pedal commander.
@@RTLife the performance pages from what I read online.
You will get the timers on the evic screens behind your dashboard - that's what I use. 100% worth it
@@RTLife it was either performance pages or srt drive modes everybody was saying they just keep saying loading forever.
There's a whole different side to this device that, to me, makes it worth $300. I primarily use my PC in ECO mode because I use my Challenger as both a daily driver and my work vehicle. It saves me so much on gas.
yah the eco will def help with MPG! Glad you're enjoying the pedal commander to the fullest.
Any bad things happen ?
I did make a video of my friend that had a check engine light - this is the video. It happened when he switched settings while driving
ruclips.net/video/Z4S6SATkA9o/видео.html
Haha she needs a peddle commander. It’s unreal that you don’t pick up a few HP’s with that thing. I also agree that it’s too pricey for no gains. Nevertheless it looks fun.
It's def a lot of fun, but man that price tag is tough. Either way, he def had a lot of fun.
We only live once, what's 300 bucks , I'm 57 years old , I'm going to heaven with story 😇
So what happened to Family Cruisin and Growls Garage?
I don't think you will be seeing either loading up videos anymore
Hey guys can I buy this for my Ram RT?
yes you can use this on your Ram.
Does this do anything for the 0 to 60 time?
If you can get traction, I believe it can help. You're talking fractions of a second though
It's crazy you would think it would help the time or at least give it a little more hp
How much more gas do you go through.
Depends on how aggressive you drive it
R/T Life Lol good enough
You shouldn’t switch modes until the car is at a complete stop, it says that in the information you get with the pedal commander.
Worth every penny on my 2018 gmc denali 6.2
