Anyone using BMS Pedal Tuner ?

[Josh bourgeois]

Just looking for some feed back on the pedal tuner.

 

[Terry@BMS]

We've sold tons.. Never had a return.

I believe Vivid Visual did a full install and review on his YT page. They look fun. Its like going from comfort mode to sport in terms of pedal response. Consider it a Sport + in terms of responsiveness, but it doenst actually improve performance.

I’m enjoying mine! I like the flexibility of adjusting the pedal input. Worked well in the snow because I could have the response really low to avoid slipping! I know it isn’t designed for that, but it worked!

Guys that are using this, does it really just feel like you now have the option to run the throttle response of sport mode in comfort and eco? Does the throttle with this feel much different than when you're in sport mode?

 

[Regs120]

Yes. In Comfort mode you can achieve the throttle response like you are in sports mode but without the aggressive shifting schedule that you would get in the cars sports mode. There are three modes, and I believe last time I checked I was on the second option which is sports mode for the pedal tuner. Each level you can also fine tune the sensitivity as well. In sports mode both on the tuner and car, it really drives like a bat out of hell. Maybe half throttle and it's above 4-5k RPM so I can only imagine race mode.

To be honest, the care stock should had came with an extra modes like sports+ mode, and track mode with comfort and Eco modes.

Just remember to calibrate the pedal tuner before you start the engine. The video is on Burger Motorsports website.

Can i recalibrate my pedal tuner again

Yes you just follow the same steps as normal to recalibrate but it's something you should really only have to do once unless you did it incorrectly the first time or unplugged the unit.

The Pedal Commander PC71 claims to 'save 20% in fuel economy using Eco Mode'. I haven't found anyone (forums or youtubers like Vivid Visual) to support this claim. Anyone have any ideas on how realistic that sounds?

Turning the pedal into a no lag on off switch will be a blast. The stinger has a very lazy throttle response

Sounds like fake news to me.

 

[MANPADS]

Sounds like fake news to me.

That's was my first thought as well. If you look at their description, it seems like this claim is based on their Eco setting actually slowing the throttle response 50% slower than stock. I wont lie, I'm curious about what that would actually feel like to drive.

Does the BMS pedal tuner work in a similar way? Its certainly cheaper than the Pedal Commander one.

 

[Terry@BMS]

Yes they all do the same thing, and you could easily dampen the gas pedal with your foot if so inclined.

 

[Kodiack]

I have the BMS model, it makes a huge difference in throttle response. I agree the stock pedal feel was lazy, this makes a world of difference.
Easy as hell to install. I run mine at level one max setting, The next two levels actually kinda scare me ....lol
Cant speak for the other brands but this BMS that I have is awesome!

 

[CoconutRob]

I have the BMS and love it also think the pedal was lagging. I would not buy it for fuel savings but for a better feel and responding pedal with adjustments for personal preference . Just a great buy for the Money, just pay attention to the online calibration instructions.

How does this thing work exactly? There is a 1/4th or so of a second delay between when you press the pedal and when the car starts picking up. Will this fix that delay? Is there a version that doesn't have the cabling and buttons. I'm a set it and forget it kind of person, and I don't wanna route cabling around the interior of the car.

I was our cruising today and I would like for someone else to confirm this.
With the BMS pedal tuner installed the smart cruise is alot smother if slowing down behind a car then lane change and automatically getting back up to speed. I remember this being very clunky when I first got the car but now with BMS tuner not an issue.

Never remember my car being clunky but it is smoother on and off the throttle at all speeds with the tuner in place. Unfortunately it is now much easier to unwittingly cruise at 80+. Needless to say I highly recommend it, especially for the 2.0.
