ECO MODE
Allows you to maximize fuel economy by up to 20% over the stock ratings. It significantly slows the response so ECO mode also allows for better traction over various terrains (rain, snow, mud, dirt, etc.) and doubles as a valet mode to keep others from accelerating over a certain rate.
To activate Eco mode, press and hold the main star button for 3 seconds.
SPORT MODE
Our spirited driving mode. Not for the light-hearted. This is our highest suggested mode for around-town driving. 70% faster signal than stock.
CITY MODE
Gives you a more active, linear throttle response, perfect for everyday driving.
This offers you a response of an “old school” throttle cable; a 1:1 pedal-to- throttle acceleration ratio.
SPORT+ MODE
Extreme mode! Gives any vehicle the response and acceleration of a race car, allowing you to get up and go with ZERO lag from your ECU. Perfect for track and race use.
Please use it with caution!
DO NOT change modes while your foot is on the gas pedal.
