If you go to the thread page, top right hand corner is a function that lets you search through all the posts and threads in this forum. Type “auto blip” and hit search. You’d be amazed

Used Autoblip for the first time this past Thursday at a Team Shelby sponsored event at Summit Point. Was fantastic and didn't miss a downshift.

Yes there have been many posts on this product. Great product support from the company owner. :clap2: Some can heel/toe and some can't. I found it very hard to do it without threshold braking. Not all corners require this kind of braking. The brakes on the car were just too sensitive without being hard on them for me.
I have used it at Willow Springs where there isn't a lot of shifting and found it to work quite well once I fiddled with the adjustment a bit. If you can't do it with your foot then I would recommend it. Others are right GM and other manufacturers have had this from the factory for some time now. Good luck with it.

Just to answer the OP's question now that I have some more time:
I've been heel toe'n in some form or fashion for 20 years. On cars that I drove daily, it was alot easier because I spend so much time with them and it eventually becomes second nature. Fast forward to now, I dont drive my 350R very much at all. Weekends, in nice weather when its just me or my wife. Mostly when its just me, because I like to raise hell. Anyway, I find that my success rate of hitting it perfectly is around 50% which for me is ok but still room for improvement. They created rev match/auto blips for a reason: it works better and more consistently than human. This thing does what it advertises. Completely adjustable to the user and allows you to concentrate on the curve vs the shift. I like it so far. This thing does better than I ever could...

Did they ever get it working for MY17"s? I recall that there was an electronic change in the throttle position sensor sometime in MY17 and they did not work for those with that change.

They did. A few of the 17’s had a 12v throttle sensor vs the normal 5v set up so you need to check. However my 18 is the traditional 5v and works fine. Nice guys and they’ll talk you through which you need. Can’t say enough nice things.

I have an auto blip installed in my 2016 GT350 and very happy with it. For me it is not a matter of being able to do heel/toe but to concentrate fully on steering and throttle. The nice thing about auto blip is that you can turn it on/ off whenever you like. I only use it on the track and works perfect for me.

I have it on my GT. Just solder or use posi-taps not the garbage 3M tapes the product comes with.
