has anyone tried this product? I love their CAI and filters, but never heard of this. They aired a commercial on Motor Trend network for home air filters, lifetime of course, and I saw this:

"Some Chevy Camaros" leads me to believe V8 only, but I've never heard of it.

yeah, if nobody here knows, I will call them for fitment before thinking about one.

Hmmm. Very interesting. That looks like it could allow for a very stealthy install. I just wonder if it is better than the other Chinese versions out already software wise.

My Vitesse is starting to frustrate me. It has always caused surging on higher settings, but with my new ported throttle body it is insane.

Some of you guys running a Vitesse throttle controller will know what i'm talking about. That crazy bucking/surging when on high sensitivity sometimes. I think it is caused or compounded by the fact that when it happens, your foot comes off the pedal, causing you to put it back on which creates a cycle of looking like you are learning how to drive manual, even if you have an auto. The only solutions are to remove your foot from the throttle completely for a second or 2 or to lower the settings.

So any new throttle controller solutions interest me. Before my PTB, I would rock it on SP9 (highest setting), now with the new PTB, I cannot run it on any higher than SP6 or it'd just too out of control and dangerous. But even with the PTB and a tune, the throttle response is lacking if not using a TC, IMHO. I tried using just the stage 2 PTB, which was a major improvement over stock, but it is nowhere comparable to a TC.

Thanks for the post TC.
