As an engineer, these things are a freakin joke a bunch of bullsh!t. You stated that your customer claimed it made his turbo spool faster. All he needs to do is bury his foot in the pedal faster. Nothing can change the maximum opening speed of the electronic throttle body. These types of modules are misleading at the very best.

Exactly, I have datalogged it and the maximum throttle opening is still around 80%, the throttle does not open any further no matter what. It is misleading if you go off of what the website says alone, that's why I wrote this review, I tried to be as honest as I can and give a real world perspective for those who care to know more.

However I think this product makes just about at much sense as those exhaust whistles that mimic BOVs.

I wouldn't put it in a class with exhaust whistles, it's a little better than that, lol, but I understand what you are saying. All I can say is that I like the way my car drives with it vs without it, I know all the facts and why you view it as such, but at the end of the day, it does change the driving characteristics of the car, whereas an exhaust whistle does not.


For what it's worth, I really wish I could send one to everyone to try for free so that you can make your own judgement, I see it much differently than I did before I drove it.

Thanks for reading and giving feedback in a respectful manner
