Drive By Wire Mod

Is there a tune/mod you can incorporate into the ECU enabling a more direct relationship between throttle input & throttle body positioning?
I would be much happier to have a throttle that reacts more like a carburetor in regards to throttle control.
Thanks

I think that 5-Star Tuning has that sewn up.

Are you talking more linear? If so just put it in ORM.

ORM takes away a lot of low end instant torque. And your truck waits forever to shift into 6th on the freeway, and the airbags are really desensitized.

the tunes can adjust how the throttle body responds to your foot. if say stock is 0-100% throttle, and 10% down on the pedal means the throttle body is 10% open....the tunes can make it so 10% down on the pedal is 20% open on the throttle body. i know that's kind of a crappy explanation but you get the point.

Yeah, I was aware of that, but I do not want to have to put it in off-road every time I get in the truck.

My point was to make it more linear, without the lag time it experiences now. It really sucks when you leave a stoplight & you either bog slowly or it jumps forward like your trying to race........recently happened to me with a PO sitting next to me at a stoplight.

Any response from you guys @ 5Star?

Your always going to have the drive by wire feeling... you can make the throttle so sensitive that it will just be too sensitive.. WE tuned a 2012 model last week and it was actually pretty good on the throttle for me. Give me a call if you have any other questions

An updated tune for a 2012, you got my attention! Even with performance tune, it feels better more like a holley four barrel with leaking vacuum secondary...
