FAQ - All Questions and Answers on PedalBox

How does the throttle controller PedalBox work?

These days, most vehicles are "Drive-by-Wire" (called ECT or ECM), and not cable driven like the old days (called the Bowden cable). The modern systems typically suffer from excessive signal delay, which is where the throttle response controller PedalBox steps in and is able to unlock the vehicle's full potential. What exactly does the PedalBox offer? The "Throttle Response" curve shows the speed at which an engine responds to the driver's pressing of the accelerator. Poor response is clearly evident, especially under hard acceleration.

How much does the PedalBox cost?

The PedalBox starts from $299. We provide standard shipping throughout the US (no charges).

Is there a separate PedalBox for each vehicle, and if so, why?

Vehicle operating systems vary from one manufacturer to the next, and even between the different models within their range. Therefore, each throttle response enhancer PedalBox is custom suited to each corresponding setup, so please remember to supply your make, year model and engine type when ordering yours, so that we can make sure we supply the correct PedalBox for you.

What are the benefits of the e-throttle controller PedalBox and why don’t the manufacturers offer their vehicles with improved response as standard?

Firstly, vehicle manufacturers will standardize many of the vehicle’s features in order to appeal to a wider audience. Secondly, the ECU will adapt the engine's performance to suite the driver according to their driving style. For example, if someone constantly drives at full throttle, the ECU will receive a lot more high speed signals from the throttle cluster and thus make the engine's performance a lot more dynamic. However, it's difficult to maintain this driving behavior under normal daily driving conditions, so the ECU gradually returns the car back to the more sluggish standard feel. This is where the throttle controller PedalBox comes into play, simply plug it in, select one of the 3 modes and your vehicle is a more responsive and dynamic machine once again. And what’s more, the new memory function remembers the last setting you used, so you don’t have to!

Would I not get the same effect simply by quickly pushing the throttle all the way to the floor?

Unfortunately not, the speed of the human foot can never match that of the car's electronics, and by repeatedly hammering the accelerator all the way to the floor can actually cause damage to the throttle cluster and drivetrain.

Do I need to inform any governing bodies after installing the PedalBox?

It’s not necessary because it doesn’t boost the engine’s performance, nor does it constitute a change to the car's basic design. Furthermore, the PedalBox complies with the 2014/30/EU directive and even carries the CE and ECE markings.

Can I adjust the PedalBox Pro with app without a smartphone connection using only the button control?

Yes. With the new throttle response controller PedalBox Pro, you have the choice of whether you prefer to use the app to adjust the tuning or the classic way using the buttons.

I purchased already the performance tuning system PowerControl X from DTE Systems. Can the PedalBox Pro app be connected to an installed PowerControl app from DTE Systems?

Yes, you can switch from any DTE Systems app to one of our other apps with a quick tap on the display. Furthermore, as soon as you have registered for one of our apps, you can also use your access data for another app from DTE Systems.

Does the throttle response enhancer PedalBox Pro app save my last settings?

Yes. The program selection and the fine adjustments are saved for the next drive after the power is switched off.

Why can't I connect to my smartphone?

Please note that only the PedalBox Pro (with app) is equipped with Bluetooth and can be controlled by app. With the normal throttle tuning PedalBox, all settings are made via the control panel. Both versions are available in the store for each vehicle.

What is the difference between the throttle response controller PedalBox and DTE’s engine tuning systems?

Our engine tuning systems increase the engine’s horsepower and torque, whereas the throttle response controller PedalBox modifies the vehicle's throttle’s response.

Does the PedalBox have an impact on the lifespan of the vehicle’s engine?

No, the throttle controller PedalBox does not have any impact on either engine performance or lifespan. The driving style and the level of care taken are much more important factors in the operational reliability of a modern car.

Does the throttle tuning PedalBox increase the engine's emission levels?

The throttle tuning PedalBox does not change the air and fuel ratios (AFR’s) of the engine which means that neither the emission levels not the exhaust gas filter will be affected by installing the PedalBox.

Will my insurance cover remain unaffected?

Your insurance cover will not be affected since the engine remains standard.

Does the PedalBox increase fuel consumption?

The amount of fuel which is injected into the engine is not altered by the improvement in throttle response. Driving behavior after the installation of the PedalBox is the main factor which affects the improvement in fuel consumption

Does DTE offer a warranty for the PedalBox?

The electronic throttle response controller PedalBox comes with a 2-year warranty.

Can I use my throttle response controller PedalBox on my next vehicle?

The PedalBoxes can be accepted in any vehicle in which the same type of accelerator pedal is installed. However, the PedalBox cannot be reprogrammed, as they also differ on the hardware side depending on the type of accelerator pedal. You want to change your vehicle and would like to know whether your PedalBox also fits the new model? Feel free to contact us!

Can I return the PedalBox if I’m not happy with it?

Yes, you can return the throttle response controller PedalBox within 30 days after receipt.
