hi guys
seems like there are alot of reviews on the Blitz version of the throttle control.
but how about the Pivot 3 drive system
does that not work with USDM DBW ?
i am leaning towards to the pivot version if it works with usdm fits. ..as it has 7 settings and ECO mode actually will help u save gas ! not like the Blitz version which i heard it doesn't do much to save gas.
and pivot is $250 vs blitz $350....
any reviews to this pivot unit ?

 

I talked to a guy from customer service and he was not helpfull. I told him that they do not have the GD3 listed and asked if I could use the same wireing harness from the K20A but he told me to take it to a mechanic and have him look at it. Did you look at the instalation process? I don't know about you, but I don't like to cut wires without supervision.

 

Here's a response they sent me when I inquired about Pivot 3-drive compatibility for Honda Fit 2008 GD3..

 

So by comparison, the Blitz Throttle Controller looks REALLY good. 5 minute install, no cutting, and the ECO mode does not decrease fuel economy. Are you really buying a T/C to save gas? No.

 

hahaha. amen to that! but yeah the blitz tc is the easiest install. i beleive the pivot and buddy club have to be hooked up to the ecu and other stuff also. and i dont beleive anyone is buying this to save gas. LOL. you can save gas on your own by driving normally. its not that hard driving slow in a Honda Fit. hahah

 

lol it kind of is in SP3 mode

but I had no idea the Pivot and Buddy Club requires cutting wires.. that is a big decision factor.

 

As far as cutting wires, im not too sure about that. but i saw the wiring diagram for the pivot and buddyclub and it looks pretty complicated. maybe not as bad as it looks though, im totally clueless when it comes to wiring things. But definetly not as simple as the Blitz TC's installation.

 

yeah i can totally agree installation for Blitz is truly plug and play. car-newbie-proof.

 

hahah. true dat. I was actually looking into one of those Vtec controllers but you gota wire stuff up to the ECU and vtec solenoid and all that crap and the diagram made my head hurt. LOL
