I installed the P.C. on my 2025 Santa Cruz, which is naturally aspirated. Overall I'm quite satisfied, and would purchase it again, although I do believe that the throttle mapping needs some fine tuning. The city mode in particular needs some work for this car's version, as the throttle lag is actually greater than without the device, and when the power curve does come on it's very abrupt. Makes for a jerky drive that doesn't feel smooth and controlled. Reminds me of turbo lag on a car that's had turbocharging added on to an engine that wasn't designed for it. However the sport mode setting is very satisfying -- no lag at all. In sport, the power onset is instantaneous and smooth, which leads to a very nice driving experience that feels completely under my control. Obviously, I'm just leaving it right there and enjoying it. I wonder if the P.C. simply uses the same throttle mapping settings for each model of car, and relies on the different settings to find a map that feels good with each car's engine That's the feeling I get from it anyway, but I guess it doesn't matter as long as there's a sweet spot for each car.

Gives the truck a nice swift boost to get in and out of traffic without any lag. Was exactly what I was looking g for without breaking the bank.

Pedal Commander is an absolutely amazing upgrade. I was able to feel all 280 horses come alive. Coupled with my trucks sport mode, and sport++4, I feel I can race the F1 circuit. Normal everyday driving, I feel city+2 is great and provides adequate fuel economy. Definitely no more lag either. Great product. I never want to own another vehicle without Pedal Commander installed.

It is the best performance item I have ever used.
No, it doesn't really ADD power, it allows me to access the power that is there but the factory engineers kept me from using.
The Sport mode level 3 and 4 are so dramatically different from stock as far a throttle response. It really feels like a much bigger engine than it is, because I have gotten so used to the drive by wire restrictions in the factory programming.The factory limits are still there but I reach those limits so much quicker. Great product!

Works just as advertised. I'm very pleased with the Pedal Commander. Highly recommend to those seeking to get rid of throttle lag.

Only driven about 6 - 10 miles since installing, but what a difference so far. The real test will be the responsiveness when I go to pull into traffic. The Hyundai's seem to have a tendency to not like you doing that if the vehicle thinks the other car may be too close, and hesitates to the point where you become a little worried. Have had this happen in 2 separate models so far, including the Santa Cruz. I'd like to post another review after further testing.

Unleaded the balls in my truck.

Works as advertised. The install was very easy. Two bolts and remove the pedal assembly Plug in and go out and test for best setting. The difference is very noticeable. Great product.

There isn’t a car I’ve owned in the last 5 or 6 years that I haven’t had one in! Love it

Blue tooth works great! It appears to do everything it said it would do. I’ve had these in the past and this one appears to be much improved over the older models. On my Hyundai I removed the 2 bolts that hold the pedal in place to get to the switch. For me it was much easier. It’s very simple to do and will save a few cuts on your hand. I would recommend if this is something you’re interested in.

With the turbo the pedal action can be a little choppy. After depressing the pedal a little there is a sudden lurch as the turbo kicks in. Significantly more noticable with the pedal commander installed. It requires more finesse when accelerating but does seem to up the acceleration and reduce response time, even if abruptly. This is on the sport 4 setting. Overall I think it will be better after I get used to it. Installation was a little tricky because the release tabs on the stock connectors were not obvious and the photos in the instructions did not show where they were. Again, overall, I think I like it better.
