I have the NTD version of this throttle controller and I like it. It does make a noticeable difference. Consider getting one from our YW sponsors.

henry33 · 09-16-2010, 01:05 PM

is the installation easy ?

what difference it does ?

*tk-421* · 09-16-2010, 02:52 PM

It helps out with throttle lag and can also save you some gas, depending on which setting you use.
There's quite a bit more info here if you do a search.

henry33 · 09-16-2010, 04:35 PM

yes i have found that ;)
which one is the best for least money?

yarisugi · 09-16-2010, 05:13 PM

installation = easy
settings = from -50% of normal throttle or +70% of normal throttle
cheapest? NTD throttle contoller same as I-Drive (ebay), Pivot. Requires harness adapter for Yaris.

the Sprint Booster is the best plug 'n play one for the money. The Blitz one has a nicer display but it's more expensive.

Here is the thread on it, echo has one on his car:

I picked up the Sprint Booster(Bought it locally as I needed it quick at the time)
Customs always slows things down.
Anyway.. it has two settings, or off.
Takes a bit getting used to considering what you had before hand!
Well Worth the 300 CDN I paid

henry33 · 09-17-2010, 12:40 PM

I have bought violence 3drive from Ray
Hope it will be good ;)
Is there some time saved let say in the drag race when in race mode ?
Thanks

henry33 · 09-27-2010, 04:21 AM

do somebody have some problems with this device ? I have read something that there were issues with engine light .

what is the benefit of mileage using the eco mode ?
thanks

Klink10 · 09-27-2010, 08:42 AM

Henry.....I have a Blitz. I have had no issues with it and it has been in for over 2 years now. It would be hard to explain the adv. or disadv. other than the to me the eco setting is where the car should have been as far as feel. I know it does'nt make much sense other than the car feels better at Eco vs stock without a controller. I usually run my car on Eco or SP1. SP1 will get you up in speed pretty quick and you will find youself lifting on the pedal, kinda of a surgy type feeling. If I need speed I'll hit SP1 then drop it down to Eco. I hope that made some kind of sense to you. Anyway now that I have it I wouldn't really want to drive the car without it. Oh, mileage....well last long trip 41.2 with Eco setting. No comparison run made with the unit off.

henry33 · 09-27-2010, 09:36 AM

can you switch it during the ride or you have to stop and then switch to other setting ? what RPM can you change it ?
thanks

*tk-421* · 09-27-2010, 11:09 AM

You can change it at any time and at any RPM.

henry33 · 09-27-2010, 11:18 AM

that is cool so I will be able to change it before overpassing someone cool

*tk-421* · 09-27-2010, 11:50 AM

You can, although it's not extremely easy to do while driving, since one needs to look at the little screen while you change modes using two tiny buttons.

I sometimes do it blindly, but it's easy to get the setting wrong.

henry33 · 09-27-2010, 02:44 PM

where have you mounted the throttle controller can you post the pix ?
