"anticipate it" is the cheapest solution.

Convert it to a Mechanical Drive throttle, only source of lag then would be your foot

Same question for me. I thought Sprint booster is pretty good at reducing throttle lag. I have an 09 Accord and the Accord forum is all crazy about this thing. Just that I would never pay $200 for a little piece of electronic like that. $50 maybe

I'm all for uprev or whatever else. It's the blitz throttle controller that is a joke.

All it does is take your APPS signal and multiply it. This takes away throttle sensitivity. If you like the last half of your peddle travel to have no effect then this is the product for you. It’s might feel great when you put it on but let me tell you something, we took the muffler off my friends Taurus when we were in high school and that car felt faster than anything on the planet. It was loud! My point is, you can’t go by seat of the pants on some things. You have to use common sense on some things.


I drew up a quick graph of throttle position (or APPS signal in this case) vs. voltage but the graph won't load on here right now.
