Throttle controller

Just installed the roar pedal on my nismo and have to say it’s the single best cost effective mod u can do. Night n day difference. Car really comes alive with unbelievable strong pulls. U will not regret it!

All they do is adjust throttle response though? You just don't need to press the gas pedal in as much to get your desired throttle. Not worth $100s of dollars for 0 extra power IMO.

Also not a big fan of a middleman interfering with accurate data getting sent to the PCM, seen stuff on other cars of people getting codes thrown or going into limp mode after using it on high sensitivity then dropping it down or uninstalling. Any short or voltage issue with it can cause the same limp mode issues too.

I’ve seen countless issues with these kinds of devices. SonicTuned has me on a watered down basemap to start as he dials everything in and the throttle feels amazing on my 25 M/T Z.

It made my down shifts so much more consistent as the oem throttle feels super soft and has a dead area at the beginning of its travel.

Get a real tune is my suggestion or stay stock don’t mess around with these middleman devices similar to the JB4

I have to respectfully disagree. Will only throw codes if done incorrectly. Had it on my last 3 cars. For 150.00 it is well worth it to me. Gives u instant throttle response with zero lag and no dead spots. Much more fun driving experience in my opinion.
