2024 Colorado zr2 here, just installed the wind booster and it’s freakin awesome. I was skeptical with all these rave reviews in the comments, but the thing works. Honestly it feels like how the truck should have shipped
I have a 2017 Colorado and always dislike it's lag like throttle response, thanks for the tip. This channel has helped me out a good bit since it got the truck.
You're quite welcome. It's definitely a problem that is pretty easily fixed. With this option having Bluetooth it makes it the most desirable option in my opinion.
Went with the Pedal Commander on my ‘18 Z71 diesel and it worked wonders for the dead pedal. Best part is that these throttle controllers are not detectable by the dealer and do not void the warranty like a tune. I also wouldn’t advise changing settings while driving because this can throw codes for throttle position.
Holy ish, putting those 300 plus horsies to work finally. This thing really works. I know it didn't add horse power but it sure the hell feels as if it did. Great buy!
HOLY SH*T!... Upgraded to a cold air induction intake, changed out a soler 76mm throttle body, and installed this wind boost... I haven't felt this kind of power since my 91 Z28 Camaro.
This thing is beyond amazing. Installed mine last night and just took it for a drive. Oh my goodness. This thing is super duper cool. Not only does it have a range of settings in different categories, but it can make it so my accelerator works properly, if you’re not careful it turns the Colorado into a race car. In the Sport 8 mode (not even sport +) I got to 50 in about 3 seconds. Speed limit 55. It also affects the volume and sound of the exhaust. I’m really enjoying this. Thank you so very much for the video and recommendation. **** Just an FYI, for anyone buying one. DO NOT install it with your truck running. It will temporarily mess up your engine power. Be smart. Leave the truck off. Also be smart and connect your Bluetooth phone app before installing the wind booster if you don’t want to use the little box thing.
@@HorsePowerObsessed well the first thing I got was Nurf bars then led lights for the interior. Next is probably the tonneau cover before I even get led exterior lights. Last is the outlanding bed rack since it’s the most expensive.
Just ordered one using your coupon code, it worked thank you! I am really hoping this works my biggest gripe about my ZR2 is how underwhelming it is when you accelerate. It leaves me wondering where those 300 horses are hiding at.
@@Cortinas28 Easy to install and does exactly what the video claimed. Anything higher than Sport + will break the rear tires lose with just a tap of the accelerator.
OMG! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have owned my 2016 Colorado ZR1 Trail Boss since it was rolled off the showroom floor. I love this truck but hate the lag on the accelerator. I used your code and can't wait to get it in and put it on. I'll come back and tell you how it works for me.
@@kingvoorhees6479 YES! Oh man what a difference. I told my buddy about it and he ordered one too. I also got the phone holder you recommended as well. Thank you so much! I really do appreciate it.
Definitely going to be picking one of these up Justin! Love my Colorado but the throttle lag is definitely one thing I don’t like! Looking forward to seeing what else you have in store for your ZR2!
So odd, was talking w/friends about everything I love about my 2020 Colorado ZR2 except any serious pedal response or power from the stop. Great video, easy to work with w/out any permanant factory tune setting. Going to run with it, thx!
@@HorsePowerObsessed So agreed with poor throttle response on my 2020 Colorado ZR1. I went with the Soler DLX, bluetooth, absolutely incredible change. Went with Soler bc of my experience w/throttle bodies in my Vettes. Many thanks, great inspiration to watch and find solutions, also cool mods.
GM should watch your videos just got a 2022 and am slowly making it better thanks to your videos just ordered one of these myself thanks much keep the truck videos coming!
What a difference I got my wind booster installed on my 2015 colorado first was sport mode number 6 too sensitive throttle response reduced it down to 3 much better. Have yet to try other modes yet. Easy to install but a pain in the ribs trying to zip tie the extra wires.
Justin! I don't know how I missed this vid until now Dude, thank you SO much for this info!!! I have hated that aspect of my truck and I absolutely love the truck otherwise. Definitely don't understand why the Colorado... HA just as you say at 13:43. Ordering one soon. Thanks again, man!!
Thanks for sharing. I bought this and it shipped from Hong Kong to Texas in 5 days! Easy install thanks to your video. Boy is my Canyon responsive now!! Thanks again for all of the videos. You rock!
I know in the video you mentioned that the wind booster controller doesn't need to be plugged in while using the app now after sometime to become familiar with it. is that statement still true in my case the less wires the better.
Cheerz, had mine delivered last month (thx to your link and 12% off 👍👍) not installed yet with all the snow here but Maybe this weekend I will and just leave it on normal mode for now. Looking forward to it.
Cruising on 993......lol I just picked up my 2022 Colorado Z71 from Riverview Chevrolet lookin forward to doin some mods. I can't stand the Lag in the throttle, Thanks for the Info. Brian from McKeesport, Pa just down the road.
That’s awesome! Not far at all! This is one of the most important mods in my opinion. The throttle lag in this truck is some of the worst I’ve ever experienced in any car.
I fixed the problem with a tune from TRIFECTA Performance, much better cuz then I have separate modes ... sport eco tow and offroad. Offroad is a ZR2 mode.
I've only had my 2021 Z71 for about 2 months and I've definitely noticed this pulling out of my drive on the uphill slope of my road. I'll pull out and push down and in about a split second I suddenly get a burst of RPMs that go up to about 3k-3.5k range and then the throttling smooths out rapidly after that and the gears start shifting. It doesn't happen every time but it's that odd split second from pushing down a decent amount on the gas and then the sudden unexpected burst of power. My 2021 has about 45k on it, one previous owner who drove mostly highway miles on it over the past 2 years. Otherwise the thing is in great shape and I'm loving it (this is my first 4x4 truck coming from owning a series of sedans over the years). I'm seriously considering removing that horrible air dam though. I think about it a lot late at night lol.
Another great vid dude. Wife is loving her new to her 2018 Z71 and your vids have allowed me to ensure it's up with the times. Great truck and might have to look into this product, and yes very reasonable on the price too. Did you mess with any of the other settings at all or still with Sport mode?
That's awesome! I'm going to get that. So does the truck keep the sport setting even if the APP is not open on the phone? or if the phone is not connected to the truck?
Ordered one awhile back after watching your video and man it does make a big difference, I also have the cold air intake from the other video, now im wondering if I need a tune after installing these things…
Is there an update to your wind booster. Unfortunately mine started to make my computer system go haywire. Returning it. I read up on it and apparently this has happen to other people using it. Any updates on yours? @horsepowerobsessed
Soler Performance makes these for vettes. Also got a new throttle body from them that made a big difference in performance in my 2020 Chevy Colorado 3.6L. Check them out, very nice people and very helpful.
Definitely interested to see if you can forgo a tune. I had a tune and ported throttle body on my first gen. I recently inherited my dad's 2016. The first thing I did was buy a similar gizmo like this one. I've got my eye on a ported throttle body. Still wondering if I can pass up a good tune. So please keep us posted. Also thanks a bunch for all your other vids. I bought the license plate bezel, leveling kit, script grille, and black fog light housings after watching your vids. Also had air dam removed. Truck looks fantastic!
This is definitely a good replacement for a tune as far as the throttle sensitivity is concerned but I'm still looking at possibly getting a tune later down the line for added power, etc. As of right now I can tell you without a doubt, this is definitely needed!
I have a Soler 72/76 TB on my 17 along with Trifecta, cai, cat back. Great improvement in part throttle drivability. I had a intermittent hesitation when doing a rolling stop, that is totally eliminated. It was great from the time I bolted it on but even better after 500 miles. Worth the $$$.
@@madcratebuilder That's exactly what I want minus catback...don't believe that's legal around here. But I would love that setup. I had already found Pedal Commander before Soler. Nothing wrong with Pedal, I just think Soler would do well with its own throttle body. I do like the auto theft feature on this Windbooster though! So many great toys from which to choose! Thank-you for sharing :)
@@bagery Pedal Commander is a good unit, I had one for about a year, removed after installing the Trifecta. The Soler and new Windbooster look interesting.
Hello, sir This is trade commissioner Eric from Cammus&Windbooster Thank you for your love of our products！ Yes，it is can use for the C5 if you have any questions pls let me know！ Thank you so much Eric
Sweet! I have a slew of things coming! A meetup is being planned too! With giveaways like a 6" lift from RC and a tonneau cover to be given away at said meetup
So funny I found your channel after buying my C7 Z06 recently, now I found out you have a colorado after I recently bought one for a daily lol! Great minds think alike 💪
I have a 2016 and put premium gas in it cause that’s all they had and I was on E. And I tell you what there’s no throttle lag 🤷🏾♂️. I only put a little under a half tank and it’s doing good. I may put regular back in with some octane booster…
Just got my 2023 Trail Boss and was a little disappointed with the initial acceleration as are many seeing this video I assume. I'm curious, Windbooster sells this product without the screen and its about 50 bucks less. If I run it exclusively through bluetooth would I ever really need the little screen? Great video BBTW! Nevermind! I rewatched and heard you say what I asked.
Justin First off, amazing video and content as always. Interested in this item. I have a 2022 Canyon, have you heard any chatter about those vehicles having this issue. I notice when i step into my throttle it doesn't feel as responsive as my 1500 Sierra did. Thoughts. Thanks
Quick question. If you leave or phone at home to run to the store or your wife drives your truck, does it still stay in sport number six?. Great channel.
Thanks for the video! Two questions: Do you have to have the app running and phone connected at all times? If you set it at your desired level but don't have your phone will it still operate as before? Have you noticed any difference in gas mileage since installing the Windbooster? Thanks again!
You're quite welcome! You do not have to keep the phone connected, it will remember your last setting which is how I leave it. I never noticed any difference in gas milage.
Yeah, so Hey. I have been checking out your vids on tho Colorado, I have a 2021 I got last year, I got the cold air intake because of you, and I have been really looking into the pedal “enhancing” products. Now that it has been about a year since the windBooster vid, I was just wondering if you still like it, or what. Sorry if I’m being weird, but I’m just wondering. Thanks
I totally understand. I used that throttle controller right up until I sold the truck and it was working absolutely perfectly and I would highly recommend it still.
Are you still using this? What are if any the pros and cons. I know a pro is better pedal response with no lag, any cons? What are your thoughts this or the Banks pedal monster? Thanks
I've used a bunch of different throttle controllers and they were all more or less the same. The features are all that really seems to separate them. This one was cheap and got the job done well. I still recommend this one over any of the other ones out there.
Hey Justin, great video! Saw something is across the bed of your Colorado in the video. I’ve seen it a couple of times on your truck. It doesn’t look like a tie down strap. What is it?
we are picking up a 2022 colorado redline edition this coming thursday june 30th, 2wd, v6, will this throttle module work on it ?? it should,, i like your threshold , carbon , red colorado protectors too
I’m deleted and tuned on my 19 ZR2 Duramax. Still not happy with my throttle response. Will this mess up my engine and trans tune or JUST adjust the throttle sensitivity?
Just ordered one up, your Promo code still works, thanks a ton for this! Can't wait, was feeling down about how this drives but glad it wasn't just mine. Had no idea they were doing this to new cars, this is annoying.
Great video! I have a 2015 Chevy Colorado z71 and I know exactly what throttle lag you're talking about. Would you know if it help/affects the MPG in the truck at all?
Every Colorado has the lag in the throttle. The easiest way to see it is to get a device like this and turn it on and turn it up. You'll see the difference immediately. It didn't affect my MPG at all.
Absolutely love your videos! I have done a lot of mods already on my 2018 Colorado and this windbooster is the next! I already order it 4-5 days ago but I haven't received any shipping notification! How long did it take to come to you ?? Thank you in advance
@@HorsePowerObsessed yes I send them email yesterday and no respond yet! I mean it is coming from China so I assumed it will be some time but not shipping derails yet a little strange 🤔
Don't hold your breath about getting an email back from them their customer service terrible. I speak from experience. I I am trying to ship one back from them that was no good.
@@gregorykozar3795 sorry to hear that! I actually got 2 emails form them in a day since I send them one! I already got my windbooster and I am loving it! Hope your issue get resolved soon!
Great writeup but $200 is steep for what this does IMO. I have the 2.8L Duramax and I'd much rather put $200 towards a carb approved tune that gets me 52 more hp and 94 ftbls more torque and also resolves the throttle issue. I find that after driving my truck for for a while my foot is now sensitive enough to automatically modulate the throttle to mitigate this issue. Basically I do the same thing with my foot. A tune on the other hand will fix in a different and better way and with a lot more power and drivability. I can't speak to the V6 gasser. Perhaps it's good alternative for it. If you've got a Duramax checkout Duramax Tuner 50 state legal tune.
Say you left your phone in the house and went for a drive would it just default back to factory programming? I'm trying to order one of these online with the link in the description it's currently not letting me add my address for some reason.
@@HorsePowerObsessed thank you sir that was another question I was going to ask if you had any trouble with it obviously not good to hear thanks again!!

That is the original proclip design. Unfortunately, they changed it shortly after I got it.
Would this work on equinoxes? probably not too safe with that much power, that's some pretty cool tech though.
Definitely would. Any of the newer electronically controlled throttles will work.
@@HorsePowerObsessedWould this work on my Dodge Neon? 😂😂😂
Do you have a link for steering wheel black bow tie?
Yes I sure do. You can get it here: amzn.to/491UwMD
I know this is old and such but does this for the the LT Colorado
Yes it does.
Justin
First off, amazing video and content as always. Interested in this item. I have a 2022 Canyon, have you heard any chatter about those vehicles having this issue. I notice when i step into my throttle it doesn't feel as responsive as my 1500 Sierra did. Thoughts. Thanks
Thank you! That response issue you have is exactly what this will fix.
Good morning how can I get this my canyon is terrible
The link to purchase is in the description below the video.
Quick question. If you leave or phone at home to run to the store or your wife drives your truck, does it still stay in sport number six?. Great channel.
Thank you. Yes, it is locked into that mode until you change it regardless of where your phone is.
What phone holder do you recommend? And is this the PC07 module?
Proclip phone mount is the best one I've tested.
I need this for 2021 GMC Canyon..
Yes you do. These trucks need this pretty bad.
@@HorsePowerObsessed my truck feels so underpowered with the throttle lag
Yup. This really helps.
Thanks for the video!
Two questions: Do you have to have the app running and phone connected at all times? If you set it at your desired level but don't have your phone will it still operate as before?
Have you noticed any difference in gas mileage since installing the Windbooster?
Thanks again!
You're quite welcome! You do not have to keep the phone connected, it will remember your last setting which is how I leave it. I never noticed any difference in gas milage.
Yeah, so Hey. I have been checking out your vids on tho Colorado, I have a 2021 I got last year, I got the cold air intake because of you, and I have been really looking into the pedal “enhancing” products. Now that it has been about a year since the windBooster vid, I was just wondering if you still like it, or what. Sorry if I’m being weird, but I’m just wondering. Thanks
I totally understand. I used that throttle controller right up until I sold the truck and it was working absolutely perfectly and I would highly recommend it still.
What phone holder do you have? I can’t find a good one for my Colorado.
It's the proclip but it was before a redesign they did where they moved it up by the vent now.
To what % does this drop fuel economy? I understand it has eco modes but looking at using the sport mode.
How is you truck doing with this? Can you give an update? Any problems? I'm wondering if I should do this or just go get a tune
100% fine. It drives like it should have from the factory!
I want that phone holder for my truck, do you have the link for it?
@HorsePowerObsessed
Will this work with the Duramax as well or just the V6? And if it does, is it same WindBooster model or different one? Thank you
Yes it will work!
@@HorsePowerObsessed Grrrreat! Thank you! The diesel is lazy as it is, and the dead pedal won't help of course. I will give this a try!
Im getting this
You definitely should.
What company did you use for your Bed liner or is it from the factory?
It’s factory.
would this void a warranty?
No it would not.
@@HorsePowerObsessed very cool! Thanks
Are you still using this? What are if any the pros and cons. I know a pro is better pedal response with no lag, any cons? What are your thoughts this or the Banks pedal monster? Thanks
I've used a bunch of different throttle controllers and they were all more or less the same. The features are all that really seems to separate them. This one was cheap and got the job done well. I still recommend this one over any of the other ones out there.
I would like to order one but it doesnt come to canada. I also have a 19 colorado zr2. Love to try it
This might be a silly question, but do you need to have the app running for this to operate?
No you don't.
in Economy mode will this add to your fuel mileage on long trips?
Yes, the easier you are on the pedal, the better your gas mileage will be and this forces you to be easy on the pedal.
nice vid. does econ mode give you, us any better mpg?
Probably, I never use it lol
@@HorsePowerObsessed i probably never will either.
🤣🤣
Justin you should get one of these for the c5 and review it!
Hey Justin, great video! Saw something is across the bed of your Colorado in the video. I’ve seen it a couple of times on your truck. It doesn’t look like a tie down strap. What is it?
That's a bungee cord.
we are picking up a 2022 colorado redline edition this coming thursday june 30th, 2wd, v6, will this throttle module work on it ?? it should,, i like your threshold , carbon , red colorado protectors too
Yes it definitely will! You’re gonna love the truck!
@@HorsePowerObsessed I love my 2016 Silverado 1500 z71 off road, but it's getting kinda long in the tooth,
I’m deleted and tuned on my 19 ZR2 Duramax. Still not happy with my throttle response. Will this mess up my engine and trans tune or JUST adjust the throttle sensitivity?
Not at all. You're good to grab one.
How does the product work with the engine shut down to 4 cylinders. Does product keep in 6 cylinder all the time
No it doesn't affect that feature at all.
Shit I thought I was just babying it, had mine for 2 days so far and here I am trying to fix this goofy problem that shouldn't exist.
Just ordered one up, your Promo code still works, thanks a ton for this! Can't wait, was feeling down about how this drives but glad it wasn't just mine. Had no idea they were doing this to new cars, this is annoying.
Amazing Justin! Wondering when possible you could give a mpg difference? If there's not much of a feel i will definitely get this for mine.
I haven't noticed any loss yet, will definitely keep you updated.
What is the cost
Is it safe to use with a tune?
Do you have a video with the link to that pro clip and how it’s mounted?
So many different kinds.
Great video! I have a 2015 Chevy Colorado z71 and I know exactly what throttle lag you're talking about. Would you know if it help/affects the MPG in the truck at all?
Every Colorado has the lag in the throttle. The easiest way to see it is to get a device like this and turn it on and turn it up. You'll see the difference immediately. It didn't affect my MPG at all.
Will this put more strain on ur trans? I got the 2.5l shes a dog
I don’t see why it would. I haven’t had any issues.
Absolutely love your videos! I have done a lot of mods already on my 2018 Colorado and this windbooster is the next! I already order it 4-5 days ago but I haven't received any shipping notification! How long did it take to come to you ?? Thank you in advance
Thank you! They were pretty quick with me, did you send them a message yet?
@@HorsePowerObsessed yes I send them email yesterday and no respond yet! I mean it is coming from China so I assumed it will be some time but not shipping derails yet a little strange 🤔
Don't hold your breath about getting an email back from them their customer service terrible. I speak from experience. I I am trying to ship one back from them that was no good.
@@gregorykozar3795 sorry to hear that! I actually got 2 emails form them in a day since I send them one! I already got my windbooster and I am loving it! Hope your issue get resolved soon!
Hey I just got my first 18 colorado what mods did you do?
Great writeup but $200 is steep for what this does IMO. I have the 2.8L Duramax and I'd much rather put $200 towards a carb approved tune that gets me 52 more hp and 94 ftbls more torque and also resolves the throttle issue.
I find that after driving my truck for for a while my foot is now sensitive enough to automatically modulate the throttle to mitigate this issue. Basically I do the same thing with my foot.
A tune on the other hand will fix in a different and better way and with a lot more power and drivability.
I can't speak to the V6 gasser. Perhaps it's good alternative for it.
If you've got a Duramax checkout Duramax Tuner 50 state legal tune.
Have a link for the one you recommend?
What model is this? It’s not the same as your 2018 red one right?
It's the same for either truck.
Say you left your phone in the house and went for a drive would it just default back to factory programming? I'm trying to order one of these online with the link in the description it's currently not letting me add my address for some reason.
No. It stays in the mode you last left it in. I never connect my phone anymore to it because I never need to change it.
@@HorsePowerObsessed thank you sir that was another question I was going to ask if you had any trouble with it obviously not good to hear thanks again!!
Justin that's amazing 😳
Thanks. It's really the way the truck should have come from factory!
I have a 2020 Canyon Justin
Awesome! It will work for you as well.
Thanks Justin 👍
You're quite welcome!
Hey Justin, does the app have to be open every time you drive the truck if you didn't install the small control panel? Just wondering
No. The device remembers last setting. Don’t even have to have Bluetooth on on your phone after initial setting.
The phone remembers you don’t even have to have it paired after the initial change if you don’t plan on ever changing it again.
Does this support the 2.5L 4 cylinder ?
Yes it does.
@@HorsePowerObsessed I’m 100% getting one 😁
What is a good product like this for a z06
I'm working with them now to see if there is one for the C7. Stay tuned.
