Yes, and if you just pull out the ashtray unit, very easy, you don't really even need a wire to snake anywhere, as you can see and just feed it from the left sidewall of the console now (that the ashtray unit has been popped out).

 

VET4VET - Anything 3/8 or larger will allow the connector from the display to pass through. It will be disconnected from the main unit. You will feed through from inside the ashtray housing to under the A/C controls toward the left. Then just plug it up. It will take you a minute if you're not used to running wires in vehicles.

 

Installed mine today and once calibrated there was an instant effect on throttle response. Time to play and get the feel for the best settings for local traffic conditions.

This device instantly created a SOTP feel. Feels like I've got another 50 or so HP.

Great mod for the price.

 

Just called them regarding my order. Apparently there's a delay because they are waiting for harness connectors. I was told their harness connector should be in today and they should start shipping them out tomorrow.

 

The other day I had stayed over at a hotel, and left the car in Eco 0.

When I got up and was driving through the city, I didn't really notice a stop light to stop light pedal change feel. Then I entered an on-ramp to the 5, and the car felt very slooow...

ah, I forgot to put the Vitesse back in SP mode (9), and not really thinking what a difference between Eco0 and SP9, I just pressed the button.





Instant velocity.

 

Really wish these worked on 05's!

 

I wonder what all would be involved to try and use an 06 computer so you could use this.

 

06's use an E38, 05's use an E40. Unfortunately it would be quite a large undertaking to swap them. The pins/connectors going to the ECM are different, so every single wire would have to be re-pinned at a bare minimum. Most likely some of the can bus signals are different too.. so I'm not sure it would even work, even if you did get everything re-pinned correctly

So... I'd probably just throw proEFI or something at it if I were going through that much trouble

 

After having my fingers crossed for a few weeks, installed my throttle controller today and what everyone says is true...it's a fantastic piece of electronics that really feels like it wakes up 50hp. The installation was relatively simple once I talked to the rep at Vitesse as I had a hard time figuring out how to disconnect the stock harness even after I moved the white clip up. He gave me the tip of looking at the harness on the Vitesse controller and push in on the middle of the stock harness in the same place. It came right off. Connected everything and went for a drive. Ok, it's cool, especially for the price and simplicity.
A big

 

Looks like Ahmed (Vitesse Motorsports) has become a supporting vendor. Great product, even if you have a tuned car.

 

Does this mean CoW can't get threads about it locked?

 

Looks like the thread was unlocked... good to see.

(in all humor) someday this war's gonna end..



Did I share that's my era war? You can probably tell.

 

My Vitesse throttle controller will be here tomorrow according to my tracking number. I can't wait to have it installed.

 

Thanks to Vitesse for your support of our forum.

Not that this product needs any more accolades but I am wasvette's brother (this thread originator) and I was able to drive his C6 the other day...

Wow, this product is amazing, hope he comes out with one for the C5. The fact that you can dial it on the fly to suit your needs is cool.

 

Get a sprint booster then, Is pretty the same thing. Well ill tell you for sure when my comes in, which is suposed to be tomorow!

 

After reading the various threads, I ordered one on 8/31. I will be very interested in the throttle response improvement. As has been stated several times in these threads, $180 is pretty cheap, considering the normal Corvette tax for anything Vette related.

I got rid of a 2013 Subaru Outback 2.5i with CVT to get back in a Vette. Subaru was very clever in the way they program the CVT; it has really quick throttle tip-in so the car feels much faster than it really is. The Vette throttle feels like dogsh!t in comparison.

 

Well I see this has been opened back up..... So ill give my review of the controller here so far... Once I get my DR's which I just purchased today picking up sunday ill be setting up another track day, but wont be for a few weeks I have a bunch of trips planned the next few weeks..

Next time out ill try and get some data logs done, I don't have the equipment to data log but a friend does,,, he let me use it last night but I was so caught up in the moment I forgot to hit record...Noob move lol Can anyone suggest what files to log ? ?

SO here ya go

As for my first time running with my new SC...
I ran all the runs but one in ECO mode (ECO3)
The first run I just got a feel for the car and the power... Nothing exciting to talk about on the time slip.....

Second run(11.887 114mph) did a little better nothing to brag about, But using the throttle controller really seams to help on my launch but the car is still spinning to the 1000' mark (till 3rd gear) , Im still on my old tire with 35k miles on them.....

3rd run(11.521 126mph) Used the same mode(eco3) car still spinning to the 1000' but feels strong...

4th run was a mess. I tried to use the controller in the SP5 mode and man that thing jumped off the line sending me sideways had to abort ......

5th run(11.907 113mph) was start of bracket racing,Dialed in at 11.51
Went back to Eco3 mode and launch was good but still spinning down the track till 3rd gear...I was fender racing this brand new Jaguar and beat him ..He wasn't to happy about that, he stormed off burning rubber all the way out of the track..HEHE

Last run (11.502 127mph) I used the same mode on the controller,,, Same results spinning till 3rd and then she would catch ... Unfortunately I broke out... 11.501 to a 11.51 dial in.....

So all in all I really think this devise will help at the track and for the 185.0 worth the shot to see the results....I think once I have the DR's I should be hitting the 10.7x or so range

 

Great review George. I didn't know you had a supercharger in your Vette. Great time slip.

 

Was that with traction controll on? What size tires?

 

Most all runs were with TC on... I turned it off to do burn outs, then reset it.... on the run where I almost spun out I didnt get the TC back on and I had the controlled on SP5.....

Stock rear tire size... with 35k miles on them they are done traction wise

I bought so DR;s today for the car some C5Z06 wheels with Toyo Proxes TQ DOT DRAG RADIAL
