What Pedal Commander setting do you have?

For those of you who installed the PC on your m235i/M240i, which setting is the perfect spot for you? I’m still experimenting but I’m finding Sport -5 pretty good, anything higher is too touchy on the throttle. Thanks in advance.

I have the Remus Responder and I have mine set on Sport -3.

I was actually thinking of these and was wondering if anyone had them and their thoughts. I find sport response on stock car is decent, do pedal commanders make it THAT much better?

Yes, it makes driving your car THAT much more fun. Here's a quick post I made regarding installation and my thoughts on it https://www.2addicts.com/forums/show...emus+responder Take everything for what it's worth and make your own decision. I have a Dinan Sport Tune and I feel the Remus made more of a difference in driving experience over the tune.

Definitely. These throttle response controller make a world of difference especially when driving in stop & go traffic. They are noticeably more responsive than stock and make a great investment if you actually don’t need any more power and just want the car to feel more lively and snappier.

I was going to ask this in hwntime's original thread. If you drive in sport or sport+ mode all the time, any value in getting the responder? It seems to make the most difference in comfort but I usually drive comfort until my oil temp is primed then I pretty much only drive in sport, which usually takes only 10-15mins.

I can tell you first hand that if you drive in Sport+ already, you WILL get even better throttle response. It can make ECO mode feel like Sport+ and Sport+ will be at a whole different level.

I just placed an order for one on the claim that eco mode can feel like sport+. Looking forward to its arrival.

How does it effect your MPG? Are you chirping the tires more from standstill?

As I mentioned somewhere in my original thread, I've actually seen an increase in mpg since installing. The only thing I can think of is because I don't have to press on the gas pedal as hard to get the acceleration? Who knows, but I am seeing about a 1mpg increase and this is over the last 4-5 fill ups when I've been consistently getting the same for the past 4 years.
