Ive been told that my C7 from the factory puts tremendous limits on its torque potential.....has anyone installed something like a Pedal Commander or similar in their c7?? ive read good reviews...but I know you guys are he best and most honest!! please help with some feedback
I tried the pedal commander and the Soler controller. I will say do yourself a favor and go with the Soler. If you can budget it do his throttle body too. Lots of great feedback here in the forums.
i don’t feel like they effect hp/torque in a way you can feel but it changes the response curves so the car feels more responsive. You can make it pretty tame all the way to ludicrous.
thanks everyone! im definitely gonna go the Soler throttle body and controller!! look forward to doing my first DIY install!! with some supervision of course!! Mike has sent me install instructions and plenty of info!! do u guys know if there is any discount for members?
I did just the TB and am happy as can be. I see no need for a throttle amp, but I'm also one of those people that doesn't like reducing throttle granularity though, so grain of salt.
Another thought would be to have a tuner work his magic. On my C6, I had one do the full tune, between the trans adjustments and throttle input tweaking- it was a whole new experience. Just a thought.
They work great. Doesn't increase power, but it gets you there a lot quicker. If you get a tune and have problems loading it, be sure to disconnect the pedal controller, as it was a problem for me.

thanks everyone for the feedback! im gonna go the soler tuning route with the throttle body and the controller!!
Just to set expectations a throttle controller does not increase hp / torque. It changes how linear the gas pedal input is. Its a great device.
yes I know! ive been told that the factory setting limit the throttle response and that this simple mod will dramatically change the response on the throttle and make the car respond better!
