Pedal Commander

[Sotally Tober]

Thanks for the tip on this...  I just ordered one on amazon today.

Any more updates on this for the 2019’s? Those that have purchased, are you still glad you did?

If this does the same thing as the pedal commander, to me it being $120 less is well worth the cost.

I have the pedal commander for my 2019. It makes a big difference in the response. I would go with the cheaper one though.

I just had the Hypertech version installed this week and I have to say I'm impressed. I have had my truck for 2 months now and I love to drive it especially now that I have the throttle upgrade. 

[Schmoe]

Are these devices essentially souped-up versions of the driver-mode control that the truck already has (touring, sport, off-road, towing)? 

[Roddy8]

I'd rather wait for a tune, although I have heard lots of good things about the pedal commander and the sprint boost. 

 

Not familiar with hypertechs version

You guys know that all it does is change the resistance output of the petal. If you press on the pedal 20% then (it matters on the setting) it send out that you pressed 25%. the vehicle will feel more responsive but in reality it just changes the output of the drive by wire resistance. My numbers are not exact in anyway.

No one will listen but that ok, there are a couple of people online that has verified this is how it works.

Wait.... so you’re telling me that it does exactly what it says it does?

Please sight the location for where it states that it does that.

I just looked all over their website and did not find anything about what it actually does except for this , "

Will Pedal Commander cause any additional wear and tear on my car?

No, Pedal Commander only gives you the performance reserved by the manufacturer (which is provided in their engine design). As Pedal Commander will only be switched on when you really need the power (e.g. when you accelerate, Pedal Commander will not function during idle), your car’s mechanical components (engine, clutch, transmission, brakes) are only stressed in line with the technically feasible scope. All protection functions and safety measures of the engine and the vehicle’s ECU are never overridden or switched off. It’s impossible for Pedal Commander to push your vehicle beyond its original safety measures.

They are not stating that it changes the resistance in the output of the pedal assembly. They say that it "Gives you the performance reserved by the manufacturer", If i go full throttle instantly, with or without the pedal commander on a dyno, i am going to put the same numbers and theoretically the same curves should come up.

It basically gives back the feeling of driving back in the days when your pedal was connected to the throttle by a physical cable or mechanical linkage of rods.    

[Passivaggressor]

It's just making the throttle more sensitive. Works exactly like I expected. The truck "feels" quicker because it takes much less pedal travel to accelerate.

I have the Pedal Commander on my 19 AT4 6.2. I also had one on my 16 AT 6.2. Definitely worth the money. I bought 420 hp and I want to feel 420 hp, none of this pedal lag crap! Go buy one and put a smile on your face every time you accelerate! 

[Philipgonzales3]

Can't you just push down the gas pedal further?  Sounds like an easy driver mod lol.  

[Silverado4x4]

All the Pedal Commander does is make the pedal more sensitive it doesn't make your truck faster or bring out more power that's in the computer or motor.
