I purchased a HIKE IT X9 to install in my ecodiesel. I am not looking for any extra power just simply to get rid of the off the line lag. Has anyone installed these? Any issues? I know there are a ton of them out there beween Banks and Pedal commander but I could not beat the $139 deal with free shipping.

I would like to hear any thoughts?

Never heard of that one before. It's usually better to ask for input on something before you buy it LOL.
I have the Vitesse on my current truck, and had a Pedal Commander on my previous truck. They have different user interfaces, but seem to work about the same in my experience. I like the interface on the Vitesse better, and it was half the cost of the PC at only $149. I'm sure you'll be fine with it.

It doesn't look like there's much in the Forums, but I've seen many GREAT reviews on-line. And I think it's getting 4.9/5 (38 reviews) Amazon.

I've been looking at getting this throttle controller myself. Where did you get that great price?

You gonna love it, I had mine for 3 weeks now and it was the best money spent on my truck so far, i ordered another one for My Genesis Coupe.
Keep it in CO8 (cruise mode) sport is a bit too aggressive for me.
This is where I installed mine
