yky said:ok, so much for discussions. Appears that this device does have a definite positive effect on throttle response.
So, any idea if it is 'commercially' available at BVO or for that matter, in any of the other usual local BMW tuners, now?
opvaulet said:Nope. I think is fly by throttle cable. But logically speaking, a more acute angle on the pulley would induce positive exponential movement too, on the throttle butterfly, which has a throttle position sensor. makes sense?
yky said:OK then, guess will have to wait for BVO to get the stocks. Sounds like this is what every automatic car needs. Can't wait.
It was mentioned earlier that it could be fitted into E46, 39, 60, 65, etc .... So, any idea if this is a 'universal' gadget that fits all these BM models or different ones are needed for different BM models?

Wow great stuff! My initial reaction was... feels like before I changed to 18" rims. Kick down was immediate whereas before was like step, hold, then kick down. Now, blib the throttle a bit and kick down immediately.
I know this electronic thingy doesn't increase power in anyway but it sure does makes the engine feels more powerful due to it's responsiveness.
Must admit that I was rather sceptical initially, but was curious and since was in the neighbourhood and a bit itchy backside, I went to try it out. Certainly time not wasted!!
The real test will be when I return the thingy tomorrow morning, will I have withdrawal symptoms. Like Wilson said, try is free, after that once hooked, that's it.
