P500 Throttle Maxx for P500 & P700

[Gator]

LMAO! Good stuff tjoreo.
I always have to explain to the wife why we HAVE to have whatever it is I'm buying. She usually agrees after it's installed.
Happy to hear that you like it, can't wait to try mine out.

Don't tell anyone this trick but... I have some stuff delivered to my buddy Leon's house. And now that his wife is used to my stuff arriving there, he can also order stuff under my name and she just thinks I have a shopping problem. win, win.

You're welcome. Looks like central and perhaps more towards the coast with all the brown grass and large live oaks. Reminds me of the area around Santa Maria/Paso Robles. I'm from San Diego myself.

Now that's discouraging.

Be excited ! Your gonna love it ! Got to take p5 out on a short but ruff ride today and it is great ! Makes it feel like a different machine ! Even in low gear you can take off effortlessly as smooth as butter .

Install was cake. Noticed I came out of the garage like a shot.
More response with less effort maybe... or maybe I was just excited to romp on it.
Haven't had a chance to really try it out yet but it looks cool,
and that's half the reason I bought it anyway! Ha!

Funny guy, yeah, I bet you punched it to jump out of the garage.

Just ordered one for the P1K. Can't wait to get it. The bouncy, bouncy, rev, rev was driving me crazy!

Any risk of pedal sticking with this device?

I had was out on my P5 yesterday, the first time since installing the Throttle Maxx. The good news is that it is comfortable and the other goods new is I took it off today. The idea is great but I had problems with it. I don't know if it was because I have the P5 OME floor mats but it always was sticking. I had to lift my foot off completely to stop over revving and it really was unnerving crawling over rocks. I suppose one could get used to it but when creeping you should not have think about lifting your foot completely off the go pedal. Just loading it on the trailer when wanted to go on its own. I'm an OCD control freak when driving my P5 and want to keep it that way. So the Throttle Maxx may work for a lot of people but did not work for me.

@Alan.
What do you feel like it was sticking to the rubber floor mat?

 

[solrus]

I need to test it too. Hmm

I do think it may have been sticking to the rubber floor mat because when you look at underside of the Throttle Maxx on the part the hinged part that says Throttle Maxx and where the curved metal touch the floor there is a lot of rubbing marks and scratches on the paint.

Thanks for sharing.
So far mine has been great. I do see your concern though.

I've felt the same thing a couple of times and I don't have the floor mats.
Cut that lip off maybe?
