I have seen a few comments on items like this here. No definitive tests (dyno of Throttle position vs HP), however the few that HAVE posted swear by them. My question is, will it fix the Throttle body not opening fully on the G?

No testing, no info, no nuttin. I want to see dyno sheets and some real world testing from independent sources.

this and the sprint booster, and others don't actually add horsepower. It just adjust the input into the drive by wire. It's got "too lazy to push my foot all the way down" all over it. I don't think the G/Z drive-by wire is that bad at all--it's linear and that's what it is supposed to emulate-linear acceleration like a mechanical throttle control. my .002

not looking for this or any other product of this nature to add power, i already got power but when i do "push my foot down..." nothing happens for a split of second ( I have the APS ST installed and tune by GTM so i got power...) and me coming from japan and owning an R33 GT-R I'm use to putting it down and getting it when i press the paddle. the car is fast, i just hate that slight delay and i want better throttle response.
