    Great video mate, I got an I drive about 10 months ago, and love it, these things are one of the best cheaper mods you can do for your 4x4 in my opinion, only thing I would say to people is go with the name brand ones and not the cheaper ones.

    Gday mate..
    I have this unit on my Hyundai Veloster Turbo..
    Definitely makes a difference but I can’t have it on any setting other than cruise or automatic when in park..
    If I have it on another setting and put the car in park ..it literally revs its head off and I have to change the setting immediately..
    That can’t be normal right?

    Nice video mate. Does the controller will destruct the tuned transmission when you install that thing? I have a tuned transmission so just asking if it does anything on tuned transmission? Cheers

      Wouldn’t do mate it’s only adjusting the throttle signal everything else is left alone

      aaron neilen not a stupid question at all mate it doesn’t effect the ECU at all as it piggy backs on to it so if you do remove it it reverts back to standard

      Still won't get rid of the throttle delay mate it's due to the nature of fly by wire every car has the delay so it's definitely worth it.

      Never used one mate but they have good reviews but I can’t see it being any better than the one I showed hear to be honest they are all just playing with the throttle response. If you get one use the 4x4campingandadventures code for a discount
