I don't know why not. As long as they manipulate the data to the ECM and it isn't the same data, it should.

I've had the Soler throttle controller for a few years now. 3 Times it's caused problems putting the car in reduced power mode, (throttle position sensor code) where I had to unhook it. I'm about ready to remove it...

Check with Diablew and see if you can return it if you don't like it. If you can, do try the Diablo I3 and see if it does the same thing as the Soler throttle controller WITHOUT the hiccups. You are a good candidate.

I was considering doing just the TB, do you need to do the controller as well? I have an M7.

I believe tuning can increase the tip in so you don't need either. $600 or less. Not a good idea if you have any warranty.
