To answer your question, it's "valid", and various companies make the throttle controller for the LS460. Essentially it makes the throttle more sensitive engaging at WOT with less pressure. Doesn't add any true HP, just quicker acceleration assuming all other things stay constant.

This sounds like a potential fix to the lagging I get when I put my foot down, but this probably won't help all that much if it's the transmission holding the car back with it's seeming unwillingness to downshift. . .

CL member Whitetooth installed one and it's legit. Search for his thread on it

peteybabes

Awesome and thanks for that CJITTY. if this doesn't leave traces that it's there like they claim, then maybe this is something that can be installed while still under warranty.

Iirc, the install is stupid easy right at the gas pedal. .trying to remember exactly

i'm going to have to look into this to see if there are any other similar units or used units as $400 seems excessive for providing really one function.

Remember. .you have a car with an original sticker of $75k plus..gotta pay to play man

peteybabes

yeh, you've been saying that a lot lately!! lol!!!

and mine had and original sticker at $97K to be precise! (before tax and title)

You're thinking the same thing I am.

I have no issues when using PWR button. If that isn't enough, try turning off the traction control completely. I find it to be very responsive then. hehe

CJITTY

I agree..the power button on my 600 is a beast

As I should have done yesterday leaving a stoplight! I spun the tires in 1st, which held the car back a bit, then it threw it into second to protect itself and then spun the tires going into 3rd again!!

lol

IMHO, I wouldn't be afraid of the TOM's throttle controller.
