I'm tempted but haven't bought yet. 10% off is available now, they had 20% off for Fathers Day.

Mine is getting delivered today. Drkness - what setting are you using? Is it different than others you've had in the past? I've never had one before, but decided to check it out based on the positive remarks from you and others. I figured I'd try it out in all settings to decide where I want to have it stay, but curious what others decide as well.

The initial setting was Sport +4 and that was bonkers lol. I’m currently set at City 0. This one with this Ram to me is a little more flighty. I’m feeling that I may need to go with every setting minus eco and see what works in this area. I’m not knocking it in the least as it definitely has improved the current throttle response. Just seems to be more sensitive then my other ones. :)

Just got it delivered...hook up was a breeze.....got major storm just hitting here now...drove around neighborhood in Sport +2.... and Sport plus +4..... it's like a bucking bronco trying to tame it....I think the eight speed tranny is very shifty but after Auntie Em and Toto get sucked up from this storm I'll go back out and fiddle around with other settings.....figures get a new toy and you can't go play with it .....now we got hail!!!!.....ill repost after I use it again

I just installed the Pedal Commander. FYI for those who plan to get one, the clip that attaches the wiring to the pedal slides out toward you - then easily pulls off. It took me about a minute to figure it out. Anyway, for the review:

I only drove for about 10 minutes after installing, but WOW! On Sport and Sport+ the truck launches out of the hole! I set it on "City" setting for now, but going to Sport every once in a while is going to be fun. Pretty sure this is going to further kill my fuel economy, but I will have a big smile on my face. :)

Did you guys buy direct from them? If so, what's shipping time like? I found the PC07 on Amazon...

I bought mine on June 22 from Got Exhaust (vendor here) and Nick gave me 10% off. Total cost was $297 with free shipping, and it arrived yesterday. (6 days) but I’m in California and it came from the East Coast somewhere.

Just connected via Bluetooth and every light on my dash lit up...threw a code to service throttle asap...turned on all the other lights and was dinging like crazy....disconnected Bluetooth all the lights went out except service engine light....not to happy with that....city mode seems decent....not as cool as I though it would be....maybe put it in my 2008 SRT Challenger to see what that's like.....or sending it back.....not worth the money IMO....

Did you have your key with you when you plugged it in? The instructions say to get the key away from the truck (at least 35 feet) so that nothing is activated while installing.

And if you don't notice a huge difference, yours is working way different than mine. Strange.

I used it for a day without Bluetooth...worked fine....activated blue tooth and all hell broke loose. Initial plug in was done correctly...it's when I hooked up Bluetooth is when it went haywire

iPhone 10.... I'm tempted to return but went to look and see I found it would plug into my 08 challenger but it looks like it a different connection at the pedal.... it was working fine ....I tried all the settings...the city mode was not bad....I think the Sport and Sportplus are way overkill for this truck...that's why I was going to try it on my 5 speed tranny SRT...but the plug is different.....on fence about returning

I think you will find that the plug on the 08 is totally different.

I tried to put the one I had on my 15 Charger on the 19 Ram......no go.
