If you are in the market for a performance throttle body or a throttle controller, you'll likely find out that we lead the pack in this segment. We provide the best performance, largest selection, and level of customization, all coupled with top quality, excellent warranty, and customer service. Our products are also a leading value proposition when considering performance and features per dollar, however, they are not the least expensive in this segment.
While some components might be named the same "Ported Throttle Body" or "Throttle Controller", they are not created equal. We encourage everyone to compare feature by feature, ask questions, get numbers, the devil is in the details. If that weren't enough for you to make a decision, please do not let the price dictate your choice, we'll match any reputable competitor's price on similar products, of the same size and type.
You have choices and we know it, let's talk. If you are considering our products, we'd like to earn your business.
ok, ill bite... Don't take this the wrong way but most pro tuners claim these throttle controllers (not your's specifically but in general) to be snake oil. I'm curious as to what makes yours different from the competition. Few questions if you don't mind answering
1) On a modified vehicle with a custom tune could this create some sort of interference issue with the TAC module?
2) Most modern vehicles (lets say a Ford explorer for example) have some sort of built in factory throttle mapping (i.e. wet mode, sport mode, eco mode) that can be changed by switching modes. Is this product similar to that?
3) How does this device install? Is it done through the obd2 port or inline with the pedal?
Hope you don't mind some subjective questions. I'm genuinely curious as I've heard good things about Soler. Just not sure it would be right for every application.

No problem. Yes, most tuners hate it, most users love them. If you don't add a lot of hardware to your car and you get it tuned, it is likely that the most enjoyable feature of the tune is the enhanced throttle response. This is exactly what the controller does, except with the controller; the spectrum is much wider, the cost is less, it is DYI, warranty safe, and configurable on the go, plus many other features like; valet, lock, eco, etc. So much so that many decide that a tune is not necessary after using a controller. Perhaps it is perceived as competition which would make the hate understandable. We do not have a problem with tunes, they are great when appropriate and done right, and our controllers still enhance the tunes.

Yes. Although most of us use it to increase response.

Inline with the Acc pedal.

Not at all, keep the questions coming. Thanks!
appreciate the honest reply! Gonna look into it a bit more! Looks like a solid product!
I have both the Soler TB and Controller on my Z06. Both Great products. No regrets and would purchase again in a heartbeat.
I know this is an older thread and this is probably an unfair question, but my 2007 Z06 has always been more difficult to shift smoothly at moderate acceleration than my LS1 firebird.
Did you notice any improvement in drivability with these mods?
