Weapon R throttle controller question - Toyota Yaris Forums

Captain Slow · 02-15-2013, 10:55 AM

I do like the idea of quicker throttle response of the drive-by-wire system, but I often just smash the pedal to WOT anyway so I'm curious as to whether or not this would be a decent upgrade (Yaris is only second drive-by-wire car I've had and never did a throttle controller before).

I read a few threads where folks were saying that it made a more noticeable difference on an automatic car and that if you had a 5spd to just not worry about getting one.

Thoughts? I'm always up for more peppy throttle response, but that $150 or so could go towards a MI intake manifold, lol.

why? · 02-15-2013, 10:32 PM

if you just want to floor it, i would save your money. It seems like a good fine tuning piece for a little more response, but only if you have no other mods you could do.
