There's a couple of things that concern me about this throttle enhancer.
1. They give the same part number for vehicles from the years 1993 through 2002. With Casper's throttle enhancer, I don't think that vehicles with electronic throttle control can use them.
2. #7 of the FAQs makes reference to the connector being round instead of flat. Although there are some vehicles with the round connector, some have the flat. They're response states that the flat-connector is the IAC valve. That may be true in some cases, but not all. If a vendor is gonna sell me an item, I expect them to know these types of things.
Look at you connection, and determine whether or not you have the round or flat connector. If yo do order one, go ahead and pay the extra money for the connectors. Also, make sure the enhancer works with electronic throttle control if you have it. Hope this helps. You can also visit casperselectronics.com.

:rolleyes: Ok, this is just the POS TPS-TEC module. When you push the pedal down halfway (website says 50% throttle) it just tells the PCM that your at like 75% throttle (I'm just using a random %, I don't know what this module is set at cause it doesn't say on the website.) You get the same effect for free by pressing down more on the gas! My .02 cents.
The way I understand it, the ECM thinks that you're at full throttle when the peddle is only ~75% down. So your throttle body is only partially open while the injectors are running at full blast. As opposed to the throttle body being wide open and injectors wide open if you were stock. It's basically sending more gas to the cylinders with less air = running rich!!! I've never used one of these so I'm just going on assumption.
Correct me if I misunderstood this.

As I understand it, it doesn't do anything with the fuel, just the voltage, so you run a little leaner for more power. The benefit I got from it was alot better throttle response, less lag. It was more noticeable than the mods that I had at the time which were: K&N, Lid, and generic dual-outlet muffler.

How does it increase your time? Can you explain how it works?
Please don't waste your time or money with this scam called a mod.
