Let’s talk Throttle Controller

[ChitownStang]

HOLY SHIT! I like my car now.
Installed the Soler Performance throttle controller tonight and went to pick up tacos. Night and day!
I was really starting to dislike how lethargic the stock tune felt for a 500hp stick. Feels like a different car now , I’m bit if this is snake oil! I researched and watched a ton of videos… it works folks

I might need to look into it. I do agree the pedal could Be better.

I do not own a GT, but I've driven a few, one of which was a loner. Compared to my EB, the GT does feel a bit sluggish when first starting out. I attribute this to the lack of low-end torque, which is to be expected considering the peak torque output is on the high end of the RPM scale. But at about 3,000 all hell starts to break loose! Yes, using Sports mode helps, but a bit more throttle tip in would help even more I suspect.

It really does need throttle re-mapping down low. I effin' love my Soler, keep it on Comfort-8 all the time around town, and my tune tips into power earlier than stock right where the Soler re-maps it for a fantastic 1-2 punch to the Butt Dyno when I get on it, which is easier now.

If you're a shooter, it's the difference between a cocked hammer and a cold one; same combustion event, but one is much easier to get to the good part than the other...

I got the soler performance throttle controller, basically after reading up on it on this forum. There shouldn't be a delay between hitting the gas and feeling the power, in my opinion, and the throttle controller completely fixes that.

Was easy to install, theoretically, although like someone else mentioned you kind of have to twist your body like gumby to do it. Also I recommend doing it in broad daylight so you can see up in there. I dod it in my dark garage with an LED light and it was still too dark, but I still got it done. What's also nice is the plastic panels down there pop right up making it easy to hide and feed the wiring.

Similar to others I didn't disconnect the battery, just opened the doors, trunk, etc. for 15 minutes before doing it, and had no issues.

So much cheaper and easier of an alternatve than getting a tune or a supercharger to fix the throttle response.

Now you guys have me wondering if the Livernois Throttle Enhancer I have laying around from my Mkz would work...
It's essentially the same thing as the Pedal Commander and Soler; it just costs more and has fewer features.

They don't list 24+ Mustang, but it should still connect right up to the accelerator pedal considering the Ford Performance Aluminum pedal covers (with accelerator assembly) worked fine and Ford lists them for 2011-2024 Mustang.

Just got off the phone with them and was told that if it plugs into the accelerator, it should work.
If it does plug in but doesn't work, they said the worst than that will usually happen is that the car gets pissed off at you; so you unplug it and everything goes back to normal.

So yeah, I may just give it a try!

Well the Livernios unit I had did not work, despite being able to be plugged into the accelerator.
The 24+ Mustangs fall into the category of 'the car gets pissed off' with it.
Thankfully, they were correct about everything going back to normal when unplugging it!

Guess I'll be going for the Soler.

You won’t be disappointed .
Wait a few weeks and I’ll sell you mine when I get tuned

Sounds good!
Hit me up when you're ready to part with it.

What’t the difference between this and the others out there like Banks Power? I am not really mechanically inclined can I do this install myself?

If you use the bluetooth option what do you do with the wires and small display that comes with the kit?

They all do a similar thing. Banks makes good stuff too.

It's not tricky at all. Hardest part is getting to the spot under the dash, but I'm old and portly and still managed it. Plug and play on og harness.

I mounted mine just on the side of the transmission tunnel. Sticks just fine. I can see it there, if it's on, and what setting it's at. Use the phone to interact with it though.

Very pretty bit of tech.

Thanks just ordered. I am not happy with the delay from the time I floor the throttle until the car really starts to move.
