Default Ordered my Soler Performance Throttle Controller

Ordered my Soler Performance Throttle Controller which should land here in the UK in a couple of weeks. When I first got my C7 I did think it required significantly more pedal travel for the power to kick in compared to other performance cars I have owned/driven. Took note of all the positive comments on this forum and took the plunge! Cost me around $320 with shipping and taxes, which is a cheap modification if it transforms the car the way I hope it does. Will keep you updated!

I'm hopeful your experience with the Soler TC will be as positive as mine has been.

If your car is manual you will love it.

After 5 years of driving my C7Z I bought the controller because I was annoyed at how bad the tip in throttle was. I would randomly stall the car because the stock throttle calibration gives you nothing under 20% throttle.

Got the controller and no more issues, the throttle peddle is much more linear and it makes the car a lot more fun.

The Soler Throttle Controller is a good mod to the car and you will notice a difference in the throttle response. I really like it on my 2014.

This is in my Amazon cart to order soon. I had a Vitesse on my C6 which lasted about 3 years before it died. I am sure that this Soler will do just as well and transform the throttle response to this magnificent beast.

You'll love it.

By any chance, is your car a right-hand drive? If so, would you mind posting a few interior pics showing the layout?

I don't know if GM made RHD models for those countries that need them...

Hi - all C7's were built LHD, but never found it an issue over here in the UK. The Soler throttle controller worked perfectly out of the box and definitely improved the driving experience. My Peugeot RCZ diesel had sharper throttle response than the C7 before this was fitted!

Ok here’s the problem the Soler throttle controller worked perfectly for a year and 1/2. But here’s the problem if you get into the power band and give it alot of throttle it calls for more power from the throttle actuator and the available power isn’t there and you end up with a dead pedal. The car went into limp mode and threw a code P2101. So the moral of the story is the soler throttle controller worked perfectly but be careful the best way to get rid of throttle lag is to get it tuned out.

I just had the Soler Throttle Controller installed at Carlisle. I'm already very impressed with the improvement in throttle response!
