They have future plans to sell you another gizmo that will use those wires.

(I just ordered my VTC this afternoon)

I'll get one in the spring, I always felt the throttle response was slow, even slower than my 2010 LLT was. I even mentioned it to my wife shortly after leaving the dealership. I just thought it was because our 2010 was broken in and the new car was not.

How much is this thing again?

Those wires are for the launch control and something to do with the brakes I believe.

I felt the same way. When I took the car home, I was happy, but it definitely didn't feel like 323HP like they advertise. My friends said the same thing.

Once I Plugged this bad-boy in, BOOM! "There's the 323HP!"

SP9 setting!

There are 2 buttons (A & B) for settings. The A button sets from Ec0 to Ec7.... and B button sets from Sp0 to Sp9

I have leave one at Sp9 for those fast moments on the Highway, and the other setting on Ec4 for everything else. (Grandma Mode)

Just Toggle between them is super convenient

Installed yesterfday and OMG! I am driving a different car. This has to be the 1st mod in everyone list, so easty to install. Tried on the settings, and any EC setting I can't deal with it. Did some take off runs on SP settings and SP7,8,9 you will break loose and TC comes in to straight you out. SP5 and 6 you will break loose a little bit no TC. SP4 seems the best to launch, and you are really quick, you can press the button to go to higher settings. I was cruising at 80mph yesterday, and this other Camaro kind fly by me, so I was like...let's test this thing out, put on SP9 and punched it, when I realized I was going 144mph, totally took me by suprised, brought the car back to 80mph real quick as the other Camaro passed by with a thumbs up. Great product.

I love this thing, here is where I mounted mine. 3-4 seems to be the sweet setting for the V8 and 9 for the V6.

Maybe im beating a dead horse, but is it really worth it? For example, im looking to by Lt headers. Would u say i should get this first? Im also concerned that it puts exsessive stress on the drivetrain (which others have also wondered.) obviously only time will tell... But for a car i plan on keeping for a long time, u think its worth the risk?

Bang for the buck I say the throttle controller would do more for you. Now the throttle controller is adjustable, so you can lower the setting for everyday driving and raise it when you want to have fun. What other mod can you do that with?
