Quite a while back I went to to an auto accessories shop in KL to get my car auto foamed to reduce NVH. This isnt to say tht the Camry isnt refined but i had an itchy backside and had nothing better to do tht one afternoon. So while waiting for the technicians to strip my baby to get to the chassis, i had some time to wander around the shop and this little device called the Pivot throttle accelerator caught my eye.
Anyways, to cut the long story short i had it installed in my Camry the very same day. This little device is very easy to install and can be tucked away neatly on the front side of your dashboard in some little corner. Basically, it has 3 settings i.e. Economy, Normal and Sport. In addition there are 5 levels of economy and 7 levels of sport settings, depending on how much effect you want at each mode. It costs less than RM2k and i must say thats its a nice thing to have as i think its more effective in getting a better acceleration than the ECT button which already comes stock with the car. However, it does make your drive more jerky if youre not careful with your foot on your gas paddle as it makes it more sensitive and also, naturally more torquish than normal, a whole lot more if you set it at SP7 which means sports setting at level 7. Youll get used to this in short order so no need to sweat it.
On the other hand, you can also set it lower to either normal or econo mode if youre caught in a traffic jam and youre set for a smooth drive (and save petrol while ur at it) that uve come to expect from the Camry. All this can be done with a touch of a button. EZ pz.
This product is made in Japan and though ive had it for about 9 mths its worked like a charm, no problem and if youre interested in getting it installed i think youll enjoy it as much as i have. Money back guarantee ;)
