I drove a car that had a Pedal Commander installed yesterday. The throttle response was night and day and it was like driving a completely different car. It painted a smile on my face every time I romped on the gas. I was wondering if anyone has installed one on on their Silverado (previous/new gen)? 

 

I do not work for Pedal Commander

I do not sell Pedal Commanders

Im asking if anyone has installed one because I've heard they work better on some cars than others...I dont want to waste my $$$ if they dont work well on Silverados.

I have the same thing but a different manufacturer on my CTS V.

Vittness Motorsport $179.00

I have one on my 17 Sierra, definitely makes in more responsive and you can dial in how much response you want. They have great customer service also. My controller was all scratched so I emailed them a picture of it and they sent me a brand new one super quickly.

I have one on my 18 Colorado with the 3.6. It’s set at City -1 and it makes a big difference.

Website link does not come up. The correct one is www.vitesse-motorsports.com     The "S" must be at the end :thumbs:

Thanks for the recommendation and the link!

 

Im surprised this mod isnt more talked about and added to the "must have" mod list. Manufacturers have baked in awful throttle response for improved MPGs (including sports cars) which sucked the fun out of most cars.

 

The mod is definitely worth every penny with the smiles it paints on your face...especially since it doesnt void your warranty.

This programmer is much cheaper than Pedal Commander or the other brands.

$180 is not bad if it provides the same result as other competitors.

Not sure if I'd want a better response. The Ford F-150 had really mushy gas pedals which I got very used to then drove my friend's 707-hp Dodge Hellcat. I hit the gas pedal and the rear tires smoked for a very short period of time when I realized what I was doing. Unfortunately, the motorcycle cop was right there and I now have a $470 exhibition of speed ticket.

Is there a way I could make it more mushy? I kind of like that.

Yes... it can increase or decrease the response.

So I guess they have one for the 2019. Can you post a link to what you purchased?

    • Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks. 
    • With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece. 
    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
