Actually it does nothing for richening the fuel or making more aggresive throttle response, it just shortens the time it takes for the engine to respond to the gas pedal depression (i.e. reduces the inherent lag in the fly-by-wire). May be feasible for use on the N/As but provides absolutely no power improvement. It just "feels" faster because of the quicker response.

True. Not needed on the SRT with tune. Money more wisely spent on other performance enhancements. Had one that made the car almost undriveable in normal everyday use after an aggressive tune. Immediately got rid of it.
