    seriously - I was a doubter, kept the shipping box to return it - but DAMN! This changes everything!

    The Raptor feels SO much lighter and nimble now, I can't use Sport+ around town for fear of burning off the rear tires at every start... it's awesome! ;)

    As i have the JMS version, i haven't driven both to see if there's a difference. JMS get's there's i believe from a third party based on conversations I've had with them and it taking so long for them to deliver. That makes me wonder if both these are coming out of the same place and just packaged for each re seller?

    I also have the Boost Max and installed it first, then added the Peddle Max a few weeks later. I can't say what the Peddle Max does as a stand alone w/o the Boost Max but once i added in it made my truck a completely different animal.

    As i can't offer anything statistical between the two product i'll have to say that i would believe they work the same. Tighten up the drive by wire throttle sensitivity, it seems to directly impact transmission shift points and speed of the actual shift. To that is seems to drop more gears to get the Turbo's spooled up quicker in order to put you back in a positive HP/Trq position.

    On a side note, the video of the burnout........ I could've done that without any of this software installed!!!! I'll say yes there's more giddy up and go now to make a more robust burn out but come on, really!!!! Stop trying to have people believe that this software is going to make the truck be 100% more then what it is already............ Oh, and same for the JMS video floating out there. I too can spin the wheels endlessly at 4am on damp roads even without any of the JMS stuff installed and traction control off..........

    I've had a Pedal Commander on the shelf for about two months since I brought my Raptor home. I installed it last night after reading Toadster's post and all I can say is... HOLY SHEET MAN! Not that this truck needed a wake up but my goodness, what a difference.

    Thanks so much, love the flag. Any ideas on where I can buy? Maybe even a RAPTOR Version?

    Does the Peddle Commander allow you to switch off the auto start/stop permanently?

    You need to go in through Forescan to do that in the software.

    Find the forescan thread here.......

    What a great set of pictures showing how to disconnect the harness and options on where to mount it.
    Thanks again
