Sprint Booster SALE for 4th gen 4Runner, Limited time. Reduces delay of drive by wire

Sounds like the device improves the throttle response .

However, I have yet to see documented improvements in 0-30mph and 0-60 mph times.

Could someone please post the times before and after the installation of the device?

My 2015 TRD drives fine with a heavy foot when I need it.

Who said it improves 0-30 or 0-60? It is not marketed that way.

This will speed up 0-60 hands down. The reaction time is super sped up. If you have two 4th gens at a red light, and when it turns green, if both people hit the gas at the same time, the 4Runner with the booster will crush the one without it. I've done it several times, and with other cars that are way faster than a 4Runner too (now those others will catch up, but you get the initial jump), but the lag is what you have to deal with without the booster. This has now become my best selling 4th gen part.

So if I install this device it will reduce my 0-60 times?

Theoretically, yes. I don’t own one, so I have no first hand experience with it. I’m a speed freak in general, but I am not concerned with the acceleration of my 4Runner. It’s my tow vehicle.

According to Jason B, the seller/official site vendor, in his posts above, yes it will.

Maybe I am not very imaginative... This device can only change what pedal position is reported to the ECU. You can only report a maximum of 100% throttle on the ECU's input. How is it going to do anything my right foot can't already do?

By reducing the delay. The 100% throttle is reported to the ECU faster.

Imagine you are filling a glass with water at a sink. You turn the water on all the way, but no water comes out for a second or two, so you replace the faucet. Now the water comes out immediately, and at the same rate. It will fill the glass faster than the old faucet did.
 
Just ordered one for my 4th gen V8 from Burtman Industries. Cant wait to install it.

You're going to have fun with it. I did just get more units in stock again and still shippping express.

If you're at a redlight next to another 4runner without the booster, and if both people hit the gas at the same time when that light turns green, the truck with the booster will pull out first, every single time. Or at a 60 mph roll, and you both punch it, etc.

So the thesis is that the delay is happening at the pedal and not at the ECU?

It’s happening between the pedal and the ECU, so technically not at either. The pedal sends a signal to the ECU through the drive by wire system, and sprint boosters/pedal commanders alter that signal.
 
Anyone try the lockout mode? Auto theft here rampant, and beyond the standard feature, thought this could be useful. Do you simply input a code into the controller to activate/de-activate?
