Has anyone put a throttle booster on a 2019 ram 2500 6.7L? If so what brand and is it able to be unplugged for any warranty issues?
 
Does it leave a footprint at all. I didnt see anything stating that it does not? What are the 4 modes that it uses?
 
it simply plugs into the tps and changes the signal. i don't see how it would leave a footprint, but
i'm a commodity expert, not a tech head :)
 
Does it fix dead pedal? Or has Ram tuned that out?

I have dead pedal on my car if two footing it and it's almost gotten me creamed more than a few times. Total BS that some lawyers are able to introduce artificial limits on DBW systems.
 
What kind of mileage difference has everyone been seeing after install? Without it I currently get 15 mpg with warming up in the mornings and between 19 and 21 on the highway.
 
To revive an old thread - installed my iDrive Throttle Booster yesterday and tried it in all modes:

Normal - factory throttle settings
Eco - reduced throttle response below normal settings (not quite clear why anyone would need this setting)
Ultimate - HOLY CRAP! Definite difference in throttle response (9 settings in this mode)
A/C - apparently a mode designed to adjust the throttle aperture according to driver habit (I didn't stay in this mode for long as I was having too much fun in Ultimate).

Thankful to all who passed along information on this device!

Intriguing... Had some dead pedal issues early on. No issues at present - throttle response is good. Have to wonder then if this controller would make fer a quantifiable improvement.
 
I just ordered an iDrive.

Use code IG10 for 10% off. Tried a bunch of other codes first and that was the only one I could get to work.

Don't forget to add a colored faceplate to the order before you check out unless you want white.
 
So it may just be the way I drive ( I’m 38 and my wife says like an old man) but throttle response is ok for me. Do you see any improvements on MPG once the newness has worn off and you aren’t playing so much. For 200 bucks it’s not a bad price

Too early to see the difference in mpg, but I am trying to document the mpg in the different modes. Give me about a week.

I’m interested to see your review of this. Could you tell an immediate difference? Think it could cause any problems down the road??

@Sawyerd3 - Yes! I saw an immediate response in Ultimate mode. As to your other question - it's too early to tell from my personal experience with it how it will affect the truck in the future. I do know that the majority of the folks who have bought this device give it really good reviews, and I haven't been able to find any negative's about it.

Time will tell!

So how is the iDrive working for you so far? Really interested in your experience with the HO diesel
 
I have one these with a few faceplates that I don't use any more if any one is interested.
