I'm thinking of buying the JMS Pedalmax device. Just wondering if anyone out there owns one and what they think about it. Is it worth it? I understand there is no power gain but they do claim the throttle response is way better. If anyone out there has experience with this device please let me know if I should get one or just save my money. Thanks

Was looking at this myself and been reading around about it. Drive by wire is a little different and I felt mines not as snappy in spots as I'd like. For the money I was leaning more towards this FRPP power pack. I'll do the same plus more without getting to crazy. My local dealer wants 150.00 to do the install. This way he enters it for warranty coverage. I told myself I'm not gonna mod this car beyond this and an axle back. I don't even want a open CAI.

I hear you. I ended up going with the race chip response control from American muscle website. I Just installed it last night. It's a decent device but honestly I don' feel a huge dramatic difference. It's not bad but I think it' over priced. Putting on a roush axle back exhaust today. After this I won' be doing to many other mods. So overall still not sure the JMS pedalmax device is good. The race chip response I got is good not great. Good luck on your mods

Sweet....hadn't seen the set-up before.
Let me know how you like the Roush set-up as I was looking to get the same. I cut the resonator out and did an X pipe the day I picked mine up....still sounds like it needs a little more bark to it. Got a feeling the X and those mufflers are gonna piss my neighbors off first thing in the morning...

Lol yea they but the sound is worth it. Just finished trying to install the roush axle back but did not meet the other pipe (due to other cuts in the past) so going to need to take it to a muffler shop to add an extension. I'l keep you posted on how it sounds

So yea the roush axle back sounds pretty darn nice. It's quiet but loud at the same time. I' happy with it but it is kinda pricey
