If You Havent Went Vitesse Your Missing Out

I know, I know, another Viteese thread. Just my take on it.

I followed a few threads on here about this miraculous controller that did wonders for $180, so I thought why not try it out. The car being a V8 didnt get up and going right at a stop like it should. I even have a Jannetty tune as well.

I got with Ahmed on buying one and had my controller 2 days later. Fast service. Everything came packaged nicely and the instructions were very detailed. Literally a 20 min job at most.

My buddy was over and he has been in the car before, so I said lets see if this thing is what everyone says it is. We put it to SP5 and Good Lawd! The car just woke up. My buddy pushed into this seat was like "I can def feel the difference."

So, with all the hype I can say a must mod and a well $180 spent. I have it set at SP6 and feel like my tires are gonna spin. I dont know how u guys do it at SP9.

Is it any good on the automatic? Wouldn't it be weird with the auto gear changes and all?

I'm getting more and more tempted to buy it. I just spent enough on kooks headers + cats and dyno tune. I might have to save some money and get it. Damn you guys! This forum has done nothing but drain my wallet lol

Does it take batteries or does it get its power from the pedal connector? The manual doesn't really say.

There's a lot of people holding off in my guess because they say it doesn't improve a quarter mile time. So it stands to reason that what it does is make the pedal more sensitive. Basically just like you're flooring it everywhere you go. That's what it sounds like anyway.

Can someone tell me at roughly what point in the pedal travel does the throttle hit wide open throttle (100%) compared to stock? Is it before the pedal hits the floor or is it roughly at the same point of pedal travel as stock?

That comment makes me think of (cringe) the power mode in my wife's err uhh, hybrid thing (prius). All it does is map the gas pedal to be more responsive.

My SS is plenty responsive. 426 HP of joy if you know how to use it....

(I have a speeding problem)

Does Vitesse pay you guys to stroke their product this hard?
