On top of that, installing a HIKEit will boost your fuel efficiency by up to 20%! The HIKEit X9 effectively reprograms your vehicle’s drive-by-wire system to get a faster response from your engine. Luckily, there’s a simple plug-and-play throttle controller that will eliminate this pedal lag. Hikeit: the Solution to Sluggish Throttle
While this works to save fuel, it also makes your 4WD feel as if it’s just drunk a 6-pack – with a dulled, slow response taking a lot of the joy out of off-roading. As a result, throttle responsiveness is deliberately programmed to be sluggish and save you fuel. The problem is that modern vehicles are under competitive pressure to provide fuel economy ratings. With a drive-by-wire throttle, electronic sensors replace the cable, sensing how much pressure is on the pedal and opening or closing the throttle in response. So when you pushed the pedal down there was an instantaneous response as the cable manually opened the throttle.īut in modern cars, the reliable throttle cable has been replaced by drive-by-wire systems. In older vehicles, a cable connected your pedal directly with your throttle engine. Do you ever press down your accelerator and notice your 4WD is a bit slow off the mark? The problem is modern drive-by-wire systems.
