Default Apexi throttle controller

I’ve had this for about a month now, I drive on white eco mode and there’s no more jerky feeling when I’m rolling at a light about to turn green than step on the gas, I usually would get a fat jerk. on red mode it’s very responsive to the touch over all this solved my problems with the ride quality my mpg is avg 16.1 mpg on the display.

You can find more info on YouTube for installs and how it works pretty handy device, when I was looking for the controller it was mainly sold out every where so I gave up on looking for one, after I was talking to my bro about it he just gave me the controller and the harness that came with his was way too new for my car to I found the harness for the Ls it makes your drive by wire feel like drive by cable. my bc coilovers come Thursday so it should be fun driving on red mode

Watch your throttle position sensor. Heard issues with them going TU after awhile when running these. Was researching them as they are an option for the GX460 also, a vehicle that really suffers from a vague pedal feel.
