Wind speed electronic throttle controller
Just been told about these electronic throttle controllers and wondering if they suit the 86? Had quick search and found one on eBay but if they work for car will look for one straight from company. Has anyone used these or put one on their brz/frs/86? Thanks

No, I haven't tried one ....... but, if it's what I think it is ... you can do the same thing with your foot on the throttle......

Yeah mechanic told me about it but from what I've read online since post they don't do much might improve throttle response a small amount but not enough to make huge difference. So from what I gather a waste of time and money that could be going to fi. Haha

delay in the electronic throttle is very subtle on the twins. The delay is way more apparent on Euros, particularly BMW's. I had a Sprint booster for my e60 545i, night and day difference. No benefits for us however .ck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
