Throttle controlled intake system
A throttle-controlled intake system is disclosed that provides a driver of a vehicle with greater control over engine functions and vehicle performance. The throttle-controlled intake system includes a control module that is coupled with an aircharger air intake. The control module processes input signals from a throttle pedal of the vehicle and sends modified throttle position signals to a throttle body of the vehicle so as to increase throttle responsiveness of the vehicle. The throttle-controlled intake system further includes a wiring harness and a signal adjuster. The wiring harness electrically couples the control module with the throttle pedal and the throttle body. The control module sends signals directly to the throttle body of the engine, bypassing an electronic control unit of the vehicle. The signal adjuster includes a rheostat that enables manual adjustment of the throttle responsiveness of the vehicle.
1. A throttle-controlled intake system for providing greater control over engine performance of a vehicle, the system comprising:
an aircharger air intake system for conducting a filtered airstream to an air intake of the engine;
a control module coupled with the aircharger air intake system and configured to send signals directly to a throttle body of the engine; and
a wiring harness configured to electrically couple the control module with a throttle pedal and the throttle body wherein the wiring harness includes a cable, a pedal connector, a throttle position sensor connector, and a signal connector wherein the wiring harness further includes a controller socket configured to be coupled with a signal adjuster to enable manual adjustment of throttle responsiveness of the vehicle.
