    Heaven forbid we get technical & use correct terminology.

    I apologise if you think I was being disrespectful to your wife. You are correct, the gender of, & your relationship to the other driver is immaterial. The fact is that if you are having issues driving smoothly with the device then there is a human/machine calibration issue.

    It's not really my fault if you are incapable of expressing a concept clearly.

      ING36R sent it express (Thanks mate, top seller!), so I fitted it today. Still gonna do a full write up but initial impressions... it makes the accelerator more sensitive. It doesn't reduce lag, or jerk you off, it just makes it a lot more sensitive. I genuinely came into this looking forward to being impressed, and I do think it's a little fun, but I think this product is a rip off above $10-20 for a bit of plastic, a cable and an extremely simple little module which amplifies the signal from the pedal. And yes, I realise that makes me a sucker too! It also caused some pending fault codes for throttle sensor (Not even active just pending, would have gone away on their own) but I just immediately cleared those and am waiting to see if they come back. Weirdly, even Eco mode makes it more sensitive, the most economical setting is off.

      I'll keep it on though, and give it a bit of time driving my usual routes with it on/off before I do a write up.

            I might end up reselling it, if I do I will simply be selling it for what I bought it for. Should clarify, seller is great and price was great, I am happy with the purchase, just not getting the hype for the product itself, but that's why I bought it, to check it out!

              I'm selling it, exactly as it was sold to me by ING36R. I'm happy I bought it and I learnt a lot and got to try it out, but it just is not for me, I would rather the money in my pocket than the slightly more fun pedal. Selling for $160 plus postage firm, reason for the $10 increase is because that's what I had to pay including my postage. Basically I want to break even, zero profit.

              btw ING36R let me know if you would prefer I make my own thread.
