throttle response

can someone tell me or the throttle response is to chance through the OBDII connection. (I do not know if your cars have a electronic throttle but my Yaris have)

I noticed a center arm rest. How do you like it? Is it high enough? Where did you get it?

Yes. As far as I understand, the yaris has a DBW (drive by wire) throttle, which means that when I press the accelerator, it sends the value to the ECU first, and then the ECU sends it to the throttle.

There's a Blitz throttle controller out there that supposedly modifies the throttle curves and apparently works great if you want to get better response.

I went with lightweight NST pulleys, and the throttle response is awesome...

NST Pulley Kit = MUCH better throttle response!

There is a Sprint Booster made by a Greek company. It plugs into the accelerator socket and thus modifies the signal from there.

Thanks for the reactions.

I read the NST Pulleys are the best solution.
