Don't forget about Racechip XLR. And for those who suggest that pushing the pedal further down...well probably technically true. I will say that simply in "normal mode" vs "one up" in either platform there is a difference for me.
Had a Racechip XLR for 2 years now and it's really nice. No issues whatsoever. Also fit and finish is nice and the little rotary controller looks cool and is easily hidden if you want.
That's what I would have said in the past but yesterday I installed a Ultimate9 iDRIVE and it does more than just open the throttle body faster.
Actually a cool device for those who want more without throwing four numbers( $ ) down for a full tune.
Not saying it's better than a tune at all but it does wake the car up !

Don't remember the brand ( got it in the USA about 6 years ago ) but I was using it on my manual ( stick shift ) VE Commodore and it simply cracked the throttle faster resulting in more jerky acceleration ( there were no increments / adjustments ).
The unit I installed on the Stinger seems to work in a smart way and with the transmission ( similar to sports mode ), but the throttle response ( at the setting I selected ) gives a more overall aggressive acceleration.
It's a little hard to explain and by no means a "full tune" but it's a cool little gadget and it works well !
Windbooster GT Bluetooth, it’s awesome! Stealth, able to hide the module in the footwell and just change the settings on my phone.
No more pedal lag in any drive mode.
I also have a JB4, Map 2
My setting on the Windbooster:
Sport+ Level 9 on eco or comfort mode.
Sport Level 9 on sport mode.

Same here. I’m on sport+ all the time on eco locally and sport on highway. It’s funny when you pass someone quickly on the street or make a quick lane change, come up to a red light and then look at the persons face you just passed. Some of their expressions are priceless lol

I’ve had my for about 9 months, ~10K miles.
No issues what so ever.
Cool part too along with the JB4, can put both into valet mode and the car is a sloth, for those times when you have to valet your car.
Also I got my half off, $90. they had a sale during Black Friday and again at Christmas time.
If you wanna wait till around that time. But I can’t guarantee it will be on sale again.

Looks the same to me. If they only attach to the gas pedal then all they can do is make the car think the gas pedal was pushed down further than it actually is. Throttle doesn't open "faster" and there is zero actual performance benefit with any of these. It's all about pedal feel. Some people love them and others hate them. Of the various options I like our design as it's both inexpensive and simple (no app required), but to each their own.
