Hi there, anyone got the e throttle controller on their CL9? jdmconcept is selling the pivot ones, it says it fit CU2 but also fit CL9, im not sure if that is possible.

Anyone else have any experience with these controllers and what you are using at the moment, might wanna share it here? Also if possible please include where you got it from and how much would it be. THANKS! :wave:

Pivot
Blitz
Shadow

AKA: Makes your gas pedal more like a Nissan Tiida than an Accord.
Wouldnt you be better off by resetting your ECU then drive like a hoon for an hour. Then Repeat once every month?

It's great. It makes Euro's DBW feel more like a cable throttle. Some people ignorantly say that you can simulate this by giving more gas but it doesn't work at all. You will notice it the minute you plug it in.

Doing that won't make much of a difference. The Euro has a DBW system and this causes lag when driving. This cannot be fixed by resetting the ECU.

wouldnt it make the car too sensitive? I hated the throttles for corolla's and tiidas, got no travel and feel.

I personally like it. After you install it there's less of a "sneeze factor" because it's a lot more direct.
