Frank and Stogey, if I didn't know better (!), I would say that you are being very nice to Oxy. If he had done his homework, he would have found that not one person who responded to this thread said anything about horsepower gains, or faster. Every single one related an opinion that it "felt" faster. Except MikeR (#11) who recanted (#28).

The fact that this device makes WOT feel like 2/3 of pedal travel is an artifact of what it does. The "shortening" of WOT pedal travel is proportional to the speed at which the pedal is depressed. If one accelerates slowly, you don't run out of "go" after 2/3 of pedal, do you? No.
One must think in ramp times. It controls, as I recall. a 0-10VDC signal. It just gives the ability to reach 10VDC faster. IF YOU WANT TO.

I like mine. And that's what this thread was about, right?
