Looks to me like a Vitnesse competitor?
A much more expensive competitor if they indeed do the the same thing. |

OK.. So After installation and test driving, I must say.... WOW... Complete 100% Difference... Night and day... TOTALLY worth the money. I am so glad I bought this. Eliminated the turbo lag completely, Throttle response is AMAZING!!! I know this does not add HP, But it feels like a whole new car again.. THANK YOU Jms Chip!!!!

why would the 0-60 change? You have 0-100% pedal position that translates to throttle position by the car.
When you want to go fast, you mash the peddle down and that takes an extremely small fraction of a second. 100% in the stock pedal should be 100% on any aftermarket pedal position sensor. Higher than 100% doesn't make any sense. So mashing the pedal will not produce any difference in performance (or shouldn't unless the aftermarket pedal sensor isn't working correctly and isn't hitting 100%). All these aftermarket solutions do is change the rate at which (usually applying a curve) the position of the pedal is reported to the car. The curves they can apply may be more natural to particular people or more convenient etc. Everything they do can technically be reproduced without them but depending on your driving style, it may be inconvenient and unnatural feeling. Also aftermarket tunes can do the same corrections for those considering having that done. |

Your absolutely right, But I think he was meaning the difference in time do to the fact that the turbo lag is completely gone.. When I hit the pedal it instantly takes off instead of it taking a few seconds for the turbo to kick in..

OP glad your liking the JMS I went with vitesse simply because I used them on my 5th Gen V6 and it was awesome I know little about JMS but from what I have seen their customer service is far better then vitesse and to those asking and arguing 0-60 if OP drives an auto you should definitely rev to around 2500 - 3000 RPM and launch with the controller it does hit slightly faster but not a huge difference if it's a 0-60 pedal mash honestly.

They're both super easy to install but require a little contortion of the body. I found laying upside down with my feet around the headrest worked great. Not sure how the JMS plugs in, the vitesse you just unplug the harness from the pedal and plug the vitesse as a connector into those two now open connections a simple 2 sec calibration procedure and your good to go.

I have this JMS Pedal Max as well and agree that the throttle controllers make a big difference to the feel of the car.
I was under the impression that the JMS pedal max also has some predictive logic in it that will make the TPS ramp quicker, so it's not just about a x=y TPS remap, but also a legitimately quicker response in the right situations. *For example throttle blip for downshifting
