QUOTE(kanina @ Jul 24 2013, 12:37 PM) Yea, I guys u guys are right, car still new, maybe after a couple more months see how, may consider PB. Tks for the advises PB is not a FC improvement device. Also, you can consider other brand of throttle controller. I have mentioned before in my review, that the 'mode' arrangement is a little not so user friendly. Consider some other TC with only racing and eco mode. Normal driving set to racing level 6 or 7. Spirited drive set to max. Instead of choosing mode like PB. |

QUOTE(zerohunter @ Jul 24 2013, 12:40 PM) lol, will try, but a bit hard ler. I'm sure you all have been in those jam situations where the second u leave a gap in front of u (by not accelerating early/fast enough), cars will be cutting into your lane. I face this every single day.QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 24 2013, 01:05 PM) PB is not a FC improvement device. Also, you can consider other brand of throttle controller.

I look at the tacho and think of my FC all the time. Sometimes I tend to forget. But frankly speaking, there is not much difference in FC in between speeding or follow speed limit in highway.if kena lottery buy bmw can drive 250 already The big difference comes from how you accelerate from 0. |
