Price?

I got on the Holley website and they are listed for $299...

I installed a Pedal Commander on my 2016 diesel Ram about 2 months ago
I bought it brand new on e-bay with best offer bid of $235
I didn't want to make it a race truck or ruin drivability and have it set on the milder city mode +2.
I zip tied the controller out of sight way under the dash and if needed control it via their app installed on my phone
I have noticed much improved bottom end power especially during take off.
No issues or engine codes so far....I am happy with it.

Ok keep us posted on how it works
I can’t keep the Challenger out of the shop, now shows code PO456. 2015 20,000 miles, three abs sensors and the whole fuse tipm box replaced. Payed off last Friday and warranty ran out feb 1st...lol

I found a combination of a cheap fleabay 85mm throttle body and used 6.4 SRT8 fuel injectors really woke up the throttle response on mine. The combo gives you a little more air and fuel at any throttle angle except maybe WOT on a stock engine may not really flow any more air.

The bottom line test would be at the track. Not to see an ET difference though. Anyone who has ever tried to competitively drag race one of these vehicles will notice that the reaction time is in the toilet. The only way to cut a light is to drastically change your routine. The standard method of staging and watching the tree doesn't work. Now if it picked up reaction time by a large margin that would show it's effectiveness. Also the pedal to throttle is not a simple 5 volt feed, return, and signal either. Its's a 6 wire system with two 5 volt varying sweeps. I was familiar with the testing at FCA called the ETC test. There is a tremendous amount of time spent to make sure the throttle reacts to various inputs that could be incorrect. Such as incorrect voltage, short to voltage, incorrect grounds from other sensors and the harness itself. This is done by shorting, opening, grounding various circuits. It's a very involved test. All to keep the throttle from staying open at the wrong time

So basically these add ons are by-passing the fail safes?

An improvement at the track would certainly be icing on the cake and I think that an improvement there is a very real possibility. At least on some vehicles. But an improvement at the track is not really the bottom line.

These items are aimed at our 'seat of the pants'. A difference that you can feel. They make you feel better about your ride. Kinda like a new set of wheels, or a buff and wax.

Or local track is set to reopen here shortly. I had never thought about taking my '18 4wd Hemi Ram to the track, but it just might be a good test bed. It ought to hook okay, so the 60' should be consistent. Then I could compare the stock and the modified throttle opening speed's impact on it's performance.

I can tell you this: from a dead stop on pavement, in 4wd the truck will not break the tires loose with a hard throttle hit. But it will bark them with the throttle set full up. That should translate to better track times. If I do hit the track with the truck, I'll post the results. But, no matter the results, I am happy with the difference it has made. As I said, I actually use the slower settings more because I am usually towing and hooking up trailers with the truck. It is particularly handy for that.

Does your truck have the same issue I have on the Challenger, push the pedal a little then a little more then wam, holes in the gravel when it comes on. Did this three times before I got used to it again after not driving it for three months. VERY irritating, then in the other car can’t make myself push the pedal. If that box helps then I’m all for it!

My last truck was worse about that than this one is, especially when backing up to hook up a trailer. But it is still enough of an issue on this '18 that I use the slower actions on the controller far more than I do the faster. In fact, I rarely use the faster ones. Mostly just to show buddies the difference. And they are typically very surprised. I wished I could get a commission because I have sold several through the demo.

The only down side to these controllers is the cost. I can't believe they are that expensive. Personally, I think that a version of them should be available from the factory. Tailoring the throttle response to the driver's preference would be very popular once owners became aware of the possibilities. Heck, we have the ability to change and adjust so many other settings on our cars and trucks today. Why not the throttle response?
