Soler Performance Throttle Controller!!!

Just wanted to put my experience out with the new throttle controller by soler performance. I am not a spokes person or anything just somebody that truthfully thinks it’s the best $75 item you can buy for our cars.

Install was literally 15 minutes but because the first 10 you sit with the door open so that the cars (TAC) throttle actuator control can fully de-energize. After that 5 minutes to install.
I drove first in OE mode just to make sure the car responded normally but then I decided to just turn it to full (LU) Ludicrous mode and turned the setting up to 9.
I instantly started laughing cause i broke my neck just barely stepping on the accelerator. It like instantly you floor it and just start spinning your tires. It feels way faster just because of how touchy the petal is.
Going the other way to the slowest mode, EC. It feels like my 99 Miata trying to drive up a hill, you have to floor it even to move. There is so many other levels you can pick the in between that suits you best.

Basically to sum it up; instructions are easy to read, install is crazy easy, and easy to operate while on the fly. Great product!!!!

Ha, thanks, JMM. Yes, that first time you press the accelerator after the install is always memorable. You know it will happen and yet it surprises you anyway.

Be safe, and be well. Thanks!

I can't wait to install mine. It has been sitting in its nice little box on my workbench for like a week now but I am under a medical limitation at the moment that keeps me from it. I may go against doctor's this weekend and slap it in there.

Was anyone else pleasantly surprised by how small it is? I was expecting closer to a credit card size and I love that it is so small and unobtrusive.

This throttle controller is the most fun you can get for $75, period...

Just installed mine and i have to agree .... There is literally a setting on it that will suit everyone's tastes perfectly.... from mild to wild. Didnt take a long time to figure out what was what since you can change it on the fly. SO worth the 75 bucks.

Correct, we have had them at $75 introductory price so far, but we can't make enough of them to keep up the demand at that price. Scaling up production is not as easy as it sounds, especially these days.

Anyway, they haven't been out for months, only for 2-3 weeks lapses. We sold our last one today and planning to have more ready by the end of next week.

Thanks,

Do you guys experience a real performance improvement? I am interested in this one, as well as in the Vitesse Throttle controller. I suppose both work the same way. I am just interested to know the real impact on performance.

Got my new Soler Port TB and controller last Friday, Thanks Mike. It is small and should

work awesome together. Had a Vitesse on my Corvette and it worked great, but the Soler looks nicer and is much smaller.



I fly out Wednesday to pick up my 2018 ILE, cant wait.

I was looking to buy one, but it doesn't seem to be available neither on Soler's website nor on eBay/Amazon.

Anyone selling theirs? Lol!
