OK.  I was hoping someone else would weigh in so I wouldn't have to expose my ignorance, but no such luck! 

So here goes: I'm having trouble understanding how a piece of tape can have any effect on an electronic drive-by-wire throttle connection.  I don't get it.

Just takes up the slack when putting foot on throttle and the revs picking up  :smiley:

Old thread to add to but didn’t want to start a new one.

Just spoken to my insurance company who are saying there’s no increase in my premium if I fit a pedal box. Nice!

Churchill. They were about £200 cheaper than the next cheapest I could get this year too. While phone call lasted 10 mins. Bonus.

Bit of a thread revival.... Anyone know if the pedalbox is generic across the GTI/R? Or do they have different maps for the different engine outputs? Cheers

Edit, I've, re-read the thread again and find the answer - they appear to work across models.
