Default JK Throttle Controllers

I emailed the 4WD Supercentre a few weeks ago asking about them getting their own brand throttle controllers in for the JK since they were available for every other make and model that wasn't Jeep.

They replied that there was no plans to get them.

Just noticed today, they are now available for pre-order. At the moment they are $79 with free postage.

That's the one.

It doesn't make the vehicle go any faster, it just adjusts the throttle position sensor so it becomes more responsive.

I've got the iDrive (the $300 one) and can't recommend it enough - makes the little 2 door (3.6l, auto) fly when the the lights go green hehe

I also have the iDrive and are very happy with it.
My wife and daughter find it too aggressive in Auto, so I have it set at U 3. A good throttle response without being too jerky.
