Hey guys i was wondering, is anyone here using any aftermarket kit to make the throttle response better on our cars? or if it opens to 100% instead of 81%. let me know thanks.

if you are using a turbo kit then get a synapse eng. BOV to get your throttle response back. also if you want to spend a chunk of money you can get the electronic blitz module for DBW throttle control.

DUANYS

Well i am supercharged but the ecu does something to my throttle that it closes it to 44% at around 4200 rpm from 81%, it really kills my top end power.

blitz throttle controller....

deathbyc4

yea then get the controller. then when the supercharger poops out, get turbo.

BlackKnight

Don't waste money on the throttle controller, what is your mods?

scikotictc232

whats wrong with the throttle controllers and can it be controlled with any ecu or just stand alone ? he said he is supercharged. you running the reflashed ecu ?

BlackKnight

its a complete waste of money. Answer this has anyone took off there intake tube and watched the TB not just what the ECU says? Have they done this before and after? Throttle controllers only shorten the milliseconds it takes to open the throttle. If you are boosted save your money and buy a good engine management system. I don't have a throttle controller and I don't have any issues with my GT35R boosted setup regarding throttle delay.

People don't agree with me on this but when I just had bolt ons the car was hesitant and coming to stops when I go to neutral (manual trans) when the rpms would drop down and stay really low (lower than it should be 500-600). So I decided to change to one step colder than stock spark plugs and I noticed an improvement in throttle response and the throttle didn't drop down as far when I came to stops.


Long story short

Great engine management FTMFW is all you need.

throttle control good ems.. hydra and AEM i believe are the only option for now.. with hydra my throttle opens 102% lol. there's a guy here that converted to cable throttle with a standalone i couldnt remember

DUANYS

Well i have header, full exhaust and a nst 9.5 psi pulley.

DUANYS

Yeah i am running the reflashed ecu, it really kills my performance uptop.

shouldn't, i have a similar setup as you and my car is very fast up top. As fast as g37 on the highway.

DUANYS

Wel i havent raced a g37, but when i hook up the scanner and i am running in 3,4,5 gear the boost drops at 4200-4500rpm to redline and the throttle percent goes down to 41% from 81%, i called trd and they say its a safety that they put in the last supercharger kits reflash map so that we wouldnt damage our motors due to warrenty issues from previous years. i curently have the nst 9.5 pulley but i know i am not making full power out of it since the whole throttle issue. what year tc do you have?

gompka

i have an 06, and my boost never drops. Maybe its only on the newer ones. I'm at 10psi @redline and btw I'm convinced that the people at trd are slow so i wouldn't be asking them anything anyway They told me my s/c bearings went out because I didn't have a cat

DUANYS

yeah mine is an 08, maybe thats why

gompka

That makes the 08 supercharger super retarded. You don't even get 7 psi or 200hp if thats the case. Weak trd very weak!

TCpete

you have a full lip kit, tints, and a little dropped... did u try passing a super white tc with a full lip kit on small silver 15's with blue lug nuts once on the on ramp from 138 to i75 a few weeks back????

DUANYS

Well when i was at 7 psi i made 211whp, ever since i swapped the pulley i havent dynoed but it feels more powerful.

DUANYS

well no i am dropped but i dont have a lipkit. but i might have seen a tc like that down here. do you go to the hangouts?

gompka

iTrader: (5)

well you said your boost drops between 4500-redline and you can't hit 7psi unless your at redline so how does that work?
