There are five tables that work in conjunction with TPS:



It is recommended NOT to tamper with these tables. Only an experienced tuner should modify them. :-/

You can not modify them.... If you do, the car will shut down with a P0606 "internal controller fault".

Once I install my CoW BOOSTER! I can modify the tables for you with Tremendous results.

Call me any time if you have questions.

I hear you, that's why I ordered one, very curious to see if I get the same results as in my bmws. Not more hp, just quicker access to what you have.....

It's worth trying. It's cheaper than the SprintBooster, has more settings, and it's adjustable on the fly. Plus it can be easily installed or removed by the owner without having to visit a tuner.

For the $180 plus like $6 shipping it is a no brainer - if you don't like the improved throttle response then send it back. Another benefit is you can dial back the throttle response big time in the 'E' setting. 7 in E is great for valets - terrible throttle response but great mileage.

There is no reason to pass on this mod unless you just never drive your vette in a spirited manner.

I've been using for weeks now and it continues to perform as advertised and no CEL or codes. I installed stereos years ago so the under dash install wasn't too bad.

I modded my Sport table slightly. No issues so far and it's been several months. It actually sharpened the shifts in TUTD.

Unacceptable. I wouldn't even wait a week. Call or email them tomorrow. I've had no issues receiving mine and getting help and info directly from the designer.

C6 of Year Finalist (performance mods) 2019

I called and left a message on Friday and backed it up with an email. I got an email response late in the day, that he was on a business trip. I suggested he call me when he got back and had time to answer questions. He called Saturday and we talked for nearly 15 minutes.

Compared to many businesses, that was unexpected to have a response until Monday at the earliest. I'd give him a strong B+.

According to our conversation, his product works almost exactly like what I want. I was not too far away from getting a local electronics company from designing one, but now buying this is a better choice.

Many of these 'niche' vendors start out as a sideline under the 'owner' is sure he/they can actually make a living off the product.

On the Impala SS forum, several long-time, prominent vendors started out this way.

Yep. Could be. Kinda like Steve Jobs and Steve Wosniak created Apple in the parent's garage and how most other businesses get started.

I wouldn't be happy either. Hopefully it gets out to you soon.

My experience mirrored yours. Very quick response to any questions. It's a fun little mod. Like I posted earlier, it's cheaper than the SprintBooster and has more adjustments which can be changed on the fly. Also the ability of the owner to be able to install and remove it without having to deal with tuner egos is a huge plus too. I'm currently in talks with them to have 1 made for my GM truck. They're still working some of the bugs out.

What truck do you have.....? I can build a CoW BOOSTER! for any GM LSx (and other) GM vehicle.

If you already have the competitor's product, I'll do you truck for FREE to show you exactly how my product works.

Give me a call 914-332-0049

Stay (Chuck CoW) TUNED! and BOOSTED!
