Default Does anyone have experience with one of these??

I have a 94 chevy camaro z28 and i was wondering if anyone has ever used a TPS throttle enhancer? summit has one and it says it will work with a programmer, which is what i have on my car. my programmer is hypertech, i was just wondering if these really work that well at enhancing the throttle response to your vehicle. If anyone has had experience with one of these i would like to hear what you have to say about the improvement it does because i do not want to spend the extra money on something that i do not need or that does not work.
Thank you

Here is a link to the one on Summit http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CEI-102017/

Don't spend your money on things that are not necessary. Ditch the hypertech too and get the car dyno tuned.

Don't buy that. Unless you got the MAF in your sig used and the Hypertech used, well you could have easily gotten a dynotune and been farther ahead. Most bolt on dynotunes around here run $250-300.

yea i got them used but the MAF was pretty much brand new, i knew the guy so he sold it to me cheap, it came off a LT1 supercharged that has never been on the road due to still building it up. where can i find a good place to get it dynotuned in MI. Is there a website where i can find a good place to go?

A good place to ask might be your regional forum. Or maybe you will get lucky and someone from your state will poke their head in here.

Vector motorsports dyno tunes LT1's for around $350-400 range.

We have never tested a TPS enhancer with our programmer. Our tune is designed around the stock tuning. The TPS enhancer will fool the computer to think its at a wide-open throttle and that will affect the tuning parameters. We dont suggest using this product.
