Probably to lean out the engine for more power is my guess, Would be much more prudent to just adjust the tps voltage manually I believe.

Ok, so I suppose what it does is simulate wide open throttle at 70% instead of actually at full throttle. I don't see how thats gonna help any though. I mean, Im usually at 1/4 throttle or ALL THE WAY BABY!!!!

(by the way, at wide open throttle the cpu stops using alot of the emissions control, like the egr system etc. so they dont suck up any power when its needed the most - although I still don't see how this thing is really gonna help anymore than just mashing the gas - unless you have tps problems and need a new one).

I've seen those in summit, they're supposed to increase trottle response and eliminate hesitation rather then put out more power.
