Lowest -3, is that still better than stock?

[MarkCWQ]

Of course. No matter what, it's still a boost unless you go onto Eco mode. Usual drive for me don't need that much torque. Lowest -3 is sufficient enough and provides a smooth acceleration, plus FC doesn't get affected.

Orange is sports right? As in Eco - Green, Sports - Orange, Race - Red?

I tried Eco +3, still more responsive than stock!

Please search through DrHannson's thread. His prices are very transparent and is all listed there.

Just got it installed today. Response is so much better than stock. Tried on sport, too responsive till the car jerk too much at low gear. In the end, trying on Eco +3. This seems to be right. Monitoring ....

Orange+2

[kkkhoo]

I also got it installed this week, started with Sports, found too jerky, moved down to Eco+3, now settling with Eco+2. Great mod! Combined Hannson's piggyback, I'm now loving my ride even more.

What car are you driving?

I'm having mine done soon too!

W212 E250

Mine's a W212 E200.

Care to comment on the piggyback? Do you feel much improvement from stock?

Where do you put the TRD controller? Is it attached with double sided tape?

[kkkhoo]

Please refer to previous thread on this topic, there is plenty of detailed information which is much more than I can provide with my 2 cents worth. There is even dyno report.

In short, my honest reply to your questions are:

Do you feel much improvement from stock? Oh yes! for me...definitely.

Where do you put the TRD controller? It's all up to you where you prefer it, if you're the sort who likes to play with the setting frequently, I suggest placing it somewhere accessible and safe to adjust. For me, once I like a setting, will likely leave it as it is for some time, so I have it away from visibility (under the steering column)

Is it attached with double sided tape? Yes.

Thanks for your response, I just wanted your personal comments as each car is different and each dyno is also different. It would be good if you would provide comments as time goes along, for example on fuel consumption effects etc. I shall do the same once mine is installed in a few weeks from now. Then we can compare notes as well as provide information to fellow forumers.

I started with Eco+3 but either I am getting used to it or the TRD is changing its response but I moved to Orange -3, then Orange -2 and now Orange -1, and still feel that it is not THAT responsive. Do any of you guys have this feeling or is there something wrong with me (my right foot getting too used to it) or my TRD unit is faulty?

[Paladin]

Been thinking whether to install the TRD after listening to all the yeas and nays from the bros here. Finally, got it installed today. Got it set to orange 1 and the pick up is fantastic. A fun mod to have.

Ps. noted the last post by bro Pacman is last Oct. I am so behind time. Lol.

[Ah Bui]

No bro... I still haven't install mine.... wanted to do it for so long... But still haven't got chance to do it....

[Paladin]

Got it from annis when I went down to order you-know-what. They dont have the size you recommended. So got the 356mm ones instead.

[Ah Bui]

that should be good enough for 19".....

[daffy]

which pads are you guys using, mine is his euromodz sports pads, has droning sound when brakes....sounds like spaceship.
