off high way 50 to tinkle....When I entered this mom and pop stop
the counter person said no free tinkle unless you buy gas or a food
item...I smiled and made a run for the back of the store..........

aggressive. had to learn the throttle curve on my right foot again, but after getting that
down, i luv the instant throttle response to my inputs. :D

i can tap the gas even a little bit, and the throttle immediately responds.
and it seems to keep the ecu out of economy mode even after cruising down a 55mph
road for 5-10min. :D that was the last piece of the puzzle for me on my Z.

You are a bigger gentleman than I because my answer to this has always been to leave the store, go around back and relieve myself there.

there was no public restroom. :shakes head:

wtf mang, there was a HUGE stall-less urinal at the back of the building. :rofl2:

In the case of the Lake Tahoe stop the station clerk had a name badge..
I believe it read "Raj Deli Wellie on Board"................

oh, it's a plug and play throttle controller that plugs in between the gas pedal and the harness going to the ECU.

wat it does is it takes the voltage from the gas pedal and multiplies the voltage so that it gives
larger voltage output than wat you're putting in.

so say for example you are stepping on the gas linearly like this:
1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4v

the output from the sprint booster would be like 1, 1.75, 2.5, 3.25, 4v

Thank you this time maybe at most 15% was grasped Dr Kenchan....

ECU = I'm sure I have one of those.....

bascially the brain that translates your inputs to computer lanugage for the car to understand. :D
