i wouldnt use a normal switch you have to turn it on when floring it then before you slow down you have to turn it off. all you do is get a wot swich then put is on ur throttle body so when its open all the way it hits the swich.

Well, you can do the WOT switch if you like, but it requires more money and more work and if you are any kind of decent driver, you will have no problem with the normal switch.....I don't.

. the switch was 3 bucks. and i can switch and drive at the same time. but why do it when it can automaticly do it when i want? i mean people have thier own ways of doing things but if its because its to expensive its not 3 dollars isnt anything. it might not of even been 3 bucks mabye less.

Well, like you said, people have their own way of doing things. I myself prefer to have a switch next to my steering wheel that tells me for sure if the DR is on or not -- not to mention putting the switch there took all of 10 minutes and has the same functionality as that of the pedal switch. I took it out for a test drive tonight on local city roads in town and had ZERO problems with the switch.

i'd do a wot switch, but too much work. i just have it on my panel in the open thing next to my cruise control. it works on the drop of a dime. used it last night to put a 5 spd stratus back in his seat. i love having a family car, no one thinks its fast, and thinks im like some dude with a civic making it look quick.

I run it with no WOT switch also. It has been fine for the last year. I never leave the switch on when I'm not in WOT. I use it every weekend and sometimes during the week numerous times.

The DR mod might just be good enough for me, since I am nowhere near Maxtuning. If it drops me to 14.5 I will be more than satisfied.

Im further away from maxtuning than you. The DR shfts harder, but I like the crisp nature of the VB stag 2 mod better.

you dont have to actually go there to get the VB mod. Although im sure it'd be nice. they give you a core charge that they hold until you actually install your VB, and refund the money when you send in your core VB
