Right now I cant hook up in 1st or 2nd, I'm blown, cammed, LT's with exhaust and dyno-tuned. With this setup is it worth it?

If I want my blade to move faster I just move my foot faster. The problem with the TB is still there if not ported, all your doing is moving the blade away from the housing quickly to were you won't notice it as much.

I've got it on my setup, I actually keep it at SP3 or EC2 all depends on what I want. Now that ive got more power and less lagg, the controller gives me control of how I want the car to feel.

It's a good kit if you like to show of and do burnouts

Sound like you need some good tires.

I don't think so.

subscribed....I've been wondering about the controller with a blower too. I'm always up for a little more throttle response

Most of us with FI dont need any help doing burnouts, The V6 crowd loves them because they really cant to that without the controller. I think the one thing people fail to realize is that the controller gives us full control of how we want the throttle to feel, and it does it with over 15 different settings. The softer settings I use for getting stuck in the rain. I usually keep it at sp3 when driving normally in the dry, but switch it to 0 if I feel the need to get frisky with another car. Spinning tires is the last thing I want to do then.

I was considering selling my controller once I got my build done, but I actually have come to find it useful when driving on the highway casually, or just putzing around town. Like I said now the controller is more about the convenience of being able to change how the car's pedal feels, it may seem like an incidental option, but ask most of the vet owners how they like to having the ability to change the feel of their cars and they will tell you they love it. Granted the settings they get to change include suspension adjustments, throttle responsiveness is one of the things they are changing whether they realize it or not.

@1KillerSS, I was being sarcastic. I have it, and I use it more for the EC modes. It makes driving in traffic much much better, and in the rain. Althought unlike you, instead of AGP TT, I am E-Force'd.

If you open the TB too fast with a PD blower, it can create a lean spike. I actually had to slow down my throttle opening rate in my tune a little.

I have a throttle controller, and am going FI in the next couple of weeks. I'm kind of wondering if the controller could be turned down in order to help with excessive wheelspin? Would be interesting to hear everyone else's thoughts here, since this seems like the appropriate thread...
