or you can not buy the pedal max and just have the person tuning the car adjust the pedal sensitivity. talk about killing one bird with two stones here.:frusty:
Apparently it still helps with the throttle response. Many GT owners run this with there tune and say it helps for sure. Can't verify it with my car as I do not have one.

You must be a rare exception to the case of manual vs. auto. My auto v6 was beating manual V6's and the auto ecoboost are much faster then the manual ones in the 1/4 mile. Nonetheless impressive times for your car. I do believe a very good manual driver would give an auto a good run though.

Also manual drivers lose races a lot due to grinding a gear or putting it in the wrong gear lol. Funny when that happens

Well turbo cars are much quicker with at...thats just a proven fact.

At is just boring for me. Theres 0 challenge...0 driver input needed. I drove v6 and eb at's for long periods of time. Even if you proved to me the at is a couple tenths quicker in the 1/4....id still never buy one. Its a personal preference.....now, if i lived my life a 1/4 mile at a time like dom terretto....i would have bought a AT lol. I enjoy the challenge, and driver skill required to drive a MT car in a fast fassion. Again...just my personal preference...dont he getting all butt hurt lol. You guys like the AT...thats great

You guys like the AT...thats great...i only drive them if there is no other choice. I also feel like you can launch a MT car a whole lot harder than a AT..unless your using a trans brake or something. All of the vids of really quick N/A cars at the track are MT cars...tgat is..if you have the traction. Again....just my personal preference...not intending to start a flame war here

The first mod I had was the JMS PedalMAX which only provides increase voltage to the throttle sensor to the throttle body, nothing to do with the ECU. The second mod was the SCTx4 which program the ECU advance timing, increase auto shifting +25% in all gears and add 12 RWHP/27 RWTQ on the dyno, for a total of 252 RWHP/ 240 RWTQ.
