Vitesse throttle control?
Ok so anyone that has a Vitesse throttle control on their c7 ( be it a stingray, GS,or Z06 ) what's the thought? we have a sprint booster on our c6 and it made a huge difference, just curious about the vitesse?

I have one
removed it
on the bottom end it will slow the throttle to a crawl
on the top end I can't tell that it makes difference at all
maybe I'm doing something wrong

I have one and definitely recommend it. I've been very pleased with the improvement in throttle response.

Personally, I didn't like it on my '16 M7 Z06, but love it on my '17 GS A8. I'm not sure if it was the LT4 or the M7, but the car was very "jerky" even at low settings (2 or 3.) The LT1 and A8, on ther other hand, is a perfect combination for the Vitesse controller - very quick throttle response (setting 5 or 6) without the "on/off" throttle jerkiness.

I love mine. I keep it set at 7 but dial it back to 0 which is stock, for bumper to bumper traffic. As previously stated, it's imperative to properly calibrate it.

Vitesse is awesome
I installed one today in my procharged 2017 GS auto
best i ran was 10.3@141
it def woke the car up down low ..wow very snappy and responsive
im sure it will pick up at the track w this simple cheap mod

I have one and use it occasionally. I have a z51 a8. Generally go no more than 4 or so as it makes it too responsive for me. For traffic I find that e4 (slow down throttle) works well.

^^^no kidding! I am one of the few that took mine out, but thinking I might try it again. I liked the ability to tweak the response, but my C7 is my daily driver, and I found it hard to drive around a typical parking lot at slow speed without an annoying surging. OK, I could shut it off every time I slow for parking-lot speed, but for now I just took it out. (I did calibrate it several times)

I put mine in last week. I love it! Set at 7.

Probably one of the best mods you can make. As stated above, it really wakes the car up. Vitesse has fantastic customer service as well. I would not hesitate to do it again.
