Hi guys,

I am new here and let me introduce myself and the possible product i would be selling.

My name is Panson representing TWP Co. Ltd. Basically our throttle controller has the same quality/function as the Pivot and Blitz one but at a much lower price(under $US230).

Just wanna get a rough idea to see if anyone would be interested for this.

Of course, this kit will be a plugNplay device without splitting/cutting any wires.
Feel free to give me comments or ideas if you happen to have any.

Sincerely,
Panson

Following link is the the throttle controller sold by Pivot.
http://www.pivotracing.com/product/THR

Basically, it's exactly the same function.
The best part of this device is that you have the multiple options to choose based on different type of driving you want at different type of road.

This device gives u more choices to play with , not just the normal and sport mode mostly car would equipped.
Following pic might give a better explanation on this device

IMO you'd sell a lot more if it were under $100

You'd sell one to every member of this site for under $100.

Throttle controller is designed mainly for GE6-GE9 because of drive-by-wire system.
The function behind this device is that it sends out adjustable signals toward ECU to change the factory default throttle response. That way, drivers would be able to better control the opening angles of the trottle according to your needs.

I don't think GD3 is "drive-by-wire" throttle system. Could anyone jump out and clarify I would really appreciate it

BTW, I am getting samples in couple weeks to test on my friend's 08' FIt.
I will report the results to see if we can roll the ball and get an initial group.

I don't know about the jdm Fits but the USA Fits GD3 and GE8 (only ones in US) are both drive by wire. Hey BTW I'd sample one! So cal is close enough to Texas! lol

Throttle Controller

Update!!!

Samples are coming in by the end of the week. I will provide 1 free sample for a real life user who could help me test the product and give out thorough reviews on a long term base. I will register for vendor status after finding the tester.


BTW, could someone point me out where I should go to apply for vendor status in this forum.

Cheers
Panson

I'd be willing to test it out as long as I don't need to cut any wires for the install. I can put my thoughts on paper at the graduate level.

Sorry for the delay.

We missed the delivery from USPS.
Sample should be out for our selected tester this weekend.
