MikeyM Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) I fitted mine top right hand corner of my screen, easy to access and can't be seen from the outside due to sun strip 😎 Edited February 17, 2017 by MikeyM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Honest question - What do these devices actually do, I have absolutely no idea, please enlighten me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPod Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Honest question - What do these devices actually do, I have absolutely no idea, please enlighten me! Little device that you wire up to peddle that makes the throttle very sensitive so gives you go straight away were as stock feels like it kicks in after 2 secs or can make it eco mode so helps you if you have a heavy foot and want to safe fuel (never tried eco so can't comment what its like haha) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Ah ok, cheers... I think they can do similar stuff when remapping too, if you ever go down that route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irn Bru Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I mounted mine on the pillar and ran the cables straight down and connected to OBD port. Hodaka's how to guide is great. I'd do a search and read through on it before you start install. There great wee devices, even if you've, like me already uprev'd your Zed. Throttle response on SP10 is great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop it in eco and try to drive away from the lights normally.... SP7 is the sweet spot Here's mine by the vent: Edited February 18, 2017 by Willsy1980 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Honest question - What do these devices actually do, I have absolutely no idea, please enlighten me! They are basically a throttle position sensor multiplier. When you press the accelerator 20% the TPS tells the ECU and it acts accordingly. This is placed between the pedal and the TPS, so 20% is now multiplied to 60% for example. They don't improve response at all, that can only be done with the remap.
